Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. Frederick Albert Cook (1865-940) was an American doctor and explorer who, in 1906, claimed that he had reached the peak of Mount McKinley, making him the first to scale North America's highest mountain. He had not. At the time, there were questions, inquiries, and an endless trail of fake photographs, incorrect maps and bribed witnesses. This book's authors spent decades gathering evidence to disprove Cook's claim; this book details how false it was. It is 193 pages, including loads of photos and maps--and a color pull-out map. Unclipped dust jacket. Almost no shelfwear--the dust jacket is deliberately designed to look like an old photo album. Until now, it was unopened. But, just around the edges, the paper has started to yellow. That may also be deliberate--I don't know. But it's an expensively-produced piece. Beautiful book.…

For 50 years, celebrated mountaineer Bradford Washburn was obsessed with Frederick Cook's claim to have been the first to reach the summit of Mount McKinley in 1906. Washburn's conclusion: Cook was a fraud. At the very least Frederick Cook was a showman of outsized proportion. The Dishonorable Dr. Cook tells the story of the colorful Cook -- what sort of man he was, why he staked his reputation on a flimsy story, and why so many people have been anxious to debunk his claims. Other details of Cook's checkered career are also included, such as his role in Peary's unsuccessful expedition to the North Pole in 1892-1893, his own amazing circumnavigation of McKinley in 1903, and his determination to be the first to reach the North Pole. Cook's account of the 1906 McKinley ascent is described, followed by evidence against it. EB; 10 X 0.75 X 8.5 inches; 185 pages.…
