Beschreibung:

Complete and unabridged, with 55 full-page plates by Thomas Gainsborough, J. M. W. Turner and Richard Wilson. Up the rivers of British Guiana to the great tabletop mountain of Roraima in 1878 - the falls, the forest, the Indian guides and the first serious attempt on the cliff. The mountain later gave Conan Doyle The Lost World. This edition is 55 plates of paintings by Frederic Edwin Church, Albert Bierstadt, J. M. W. Turner and others, 1750–1920.
