Gallagher Tony
Towels Triumph and Tears
Madeira Park BC Canada: Harbour Publishing Company Limited. Paperback. 0920080391 155 pages. "For eleven years the Vancouver Canucks toiled without distinction in the nether reaches of the Natioinal Hockey League. The twelfth season started the same way and after six months the team was firmly lodged in the bottom half of the standings. Then in one of the most amazing transformations ever witnessed in the history of the game the team caught fire and played its next 22 games with only two losses finally challenging the mighty New York Islanders for hockey supremacy in the 1982 Stanly Cup Finals. Along the way the Canucks' home province British Columbia was consumed with hockey madness. At the opera hall in Vancouver concerts were interrupted to announce game results. The airport was brought to a standstill by huge crowds waiting to greet players. Political leaders vied with each other to prove themselves the truest hockey fan. During game broadcasts city streets were deserted. And even after the team failed to overcome the strong New York club in the final 50000 attended a parade to show their support. How did the Vancouver Canucks accomplish their remarkable feat And why did the people of British Columbia succumb so completely to the influence of 'Canuck Fever' To answer these questions Vancouver Province hockey writers Tony Gallagher and Mike Gasher probe the team's history and relive those wild towel-waving weeks in the spring of 1982 from the viewpoint of the players and the fans." - from back cover. Cover features the unforgettable scene of coach Roger Neilson raising a white towel at the end of a hockey stick to silently voice his disapproval of officiating in the semi-finals against Chicago. Includes several pages of excellent black and white photos. Pages have gently yellowed with age. Binding intact. Unmarked. A wonderful gift for the true die-hard Vancouver Canuck fan. . Good. 1982. First Edition. Harbour Publishing Company, Limited paperback

Longmans Green & Co. 1896. 8vo. Second Edition with frontispiece original tissue guard present coloured plate and 60 wood-engraved illustrations a number full-page in the text a few relevant pencilled marginal annotations in a neat scholarly hand; handsomely bound in navy full crushed morocco sides with gilt frame borders back with raised bands ruled in gilt second and fourth compartments lettered in gilt all other compartments tooled in gilt gilt top hand-made endpapers uncut an elegant copy ideal as a gift or for presentation. With 2pp publisher's catalogue bound in at end. Dedicated to Faraday Tyndall's classic account was first published in 1860. This revised edition sanctioned by his widow and issued three years after his death includes minor textual corrections and a much improved index.

His most famous climb is probably the first ascent of the Weisshorn but he was also a contender for the first ascent of the Matterhorn. In July 1862 with Johann Bennen he reached the main shoulder only to be defeated by a deep cleft. Neate 836. Longmans Green & Co., hardcover
