DESIO, Prof. Ardito
The Ascent of K2 - 09
Title: The Ascent of K2. Author: Professor Ardito Desio Publisher: London: Edward Stanford, Royal Geographical Society, 1955. Item is in Original Condition, with Blue Wrappers - As Issued, Complete with All the Ads! Notes & Condition: The idea was conceived by inveterate mountain climber Ardito Desio in 1929 to organize an Italian expedition to summit K2. A vision still resonating with him in 1936, if not taunting his mountaineering passion, he began to formulate a plan. Finally, in 1952 the opportunity to make a reconnaissance expedition was realized, followed by a a preparatory journey in 1953, and the subsequent Italian Expedition led by him in 1954, which indeed was victorious, making the First Ascent of K2. Desio's expedition was one of the best organized and executed assaults on a Himalayan peak. After studying the factors of the five previous failed attempts of other expeditions, he prepared his team and equipment quite differently, with meticulously care. With the help of some 500 local porters who hauled 13 tons of gear and food up the upper Baltoro glacier, he installed seven sturdy and well-stocked camps to let climbers rest at higher altitudes. That alone was a feat undertaken by none before him. The inception of a record-breaking mountaineering expedition, the critical undertaking of a reconnaissance, economic and political considerations, the well planned and impeccably carried out preparations, the momentous climb to reach the summit of K2 for the first time - all are recounted in this, the expedition leader's firsthand and foremost report. 8vo. 13 pages, plus 1 full page sketch map and a photographic plate for illustration. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. This is a complete issue, seldom found in such good and original condition. Count Ardito Desio (1897-2001) was an Italian explorer, an exceptional mountain climber, a geologist, and cartographer. Most famous for having led the first climbing expedition to summit K2, he made numerous other explorations, to the Middle East, North Africa, the Philippines, Burma, and Antarctica, in 1962 becoming the first Italian to reach the South Pole. Professor Desio led scientific expeditions well into his 90's, and died at age 104. K2, also known as Mount Godwin-Austen or Chhogori, is the second highest mountain in the world, after Mount Everest, at 8,611 metres (28,251 ft) above sea level. It is located on the China-Pakistan border between Baltistan, in the Gilgit-Baltistan region of northern Pakistan, and the Taxkorgan Tajik Autonomous County of Xinjiang, China. K2 is the highest point of the Karakoram range and the highest point in both Pakistan and Xinjiang. K2 is nicknamed "Savage Mountain" due to the extreme difficulty of ascent. It has the second-highest fatality rate among all the peaks which reach more than 8,000 metres, collectively known as the eight thousanders, and all situated in the Himalayan and Karakoram ranges. Led by Italian climber Ardito Desio, the expedition to make the first successful ascent to the summit of K2, did so via the Abruzzi Spur on 31 July 1954. The two climbers who reached the summit were Lino Lacedelli and Achille Compagnoni. The team included a Pakistani member, Colonel Muhammad Ata-ullah, who had been a part of the 1953 American expedition. Also on the expedition were Walter Bonatti and Pakistani Hunza porter Amir Mehdi, who both proved vital to the expedition's success in that they carried oxygen tanks to 8,100 metres (26,600 ft) for Lacedelli and Compagnoni. The ascent is controversial because Lacedelli and Compagnoni established their camp at a higher elevation than originally agreed with Medhi and Bonatti. It being too dark to ascend or descend, Medhi and Bonatti were forced to overnight without shelter above 8,000 meters leaving the oxygen tanks behind as requested when they descended. Bonatti and Mehdi survived, but Mehdi was hospitalized for months and had to have his toes amputated because of frostbite. Efforts in the 1950s to suppress these facts to protect Lacedelli and Compagnoni's reputations as Italian national heroes were later brought to light. It was also revealed that the moving of the camp was deliberate, a move apparently made because Compagnoni feared being outshone by the younger Bonatti. Bonatti was given the blame for Medhi's hospitalization.

Jahrhundert ein kleines Schloss errichtet, welches dem König und seiner Familie als Rückzugsort vor der Hektik und der politischen Repräsentation bei Hofe diente. Nordöstlich davon ließ sein Nachfolger Ludwig XV. das Petit Trianon für Madame de Pompadour († 1764) in Auftrag geben, die jedoch kurz nach dem Baubeginn starb, so dass das Schlösschen gelegentlich von der neuen Favoritin Madame Dubarry genutzt wurde. Als Ludwig XVI. seinen Großvater beerbte, schenkte er es seiner Gemahlin Marie-Antoinette, die das Gebäude für sich herrichten ließ. Im 19. Jahrhundert, nach dem Ende des Ancien Régime, legte hier dann die Kaiserin Eugénie, die Frau Napoleons III., eine Sammlung mit Gegenständen aus dem Besitz Marie-Antoinettes an. Heute gehört das Schloss zum Museum von Versailles und ist für Besucher geöffnet" (Wikipedia). - Sehr gut erhalten. Bücher fr
