Description: This copy is Signed by the author (just signed 'Liz'), with a personalized note. Includes four double sided color plates and a short section of black and white photo plates. Elizabeth Forster is an indomitable traveler who has made seven solo treks in Nepal over ten years and is still trekking there at age 73. Her lively and amusing account of her excursions is an encouragement to those who think adventure is only for the young. Her first short trek lasting a fortnight gave her an appetite for further Himalayan visits. Since then she has been to the Annapurna Sanctuary, twice to different parts of East Nepal and four times to the Everest area. Apart from the spectacular beauty of Nepal and the charm of its people Miss Forster is drawn by its rich bird life. A list of birds mentioned I the text is printed at the rear.
