Description
I owe a great debt of gratitude to my old mountaineering companion Dr. Hacker, who with infinite patience devoted much valuable time, not to speak of a considerable portion of an Austrian magistrate''s short holiday, to the production of the photographs. Over two hundred of these were taken on the glaciers of Tirol, and those reproduced on these pages are the result of careful selection. His is the greatest immediate share in the making of this book. To a young and unassuming lady he will not dispute a place of honour on the title-page. Fraulein Elsa von Lepkowski, of Kitzbiihel, has drawn the clever silhouettes which are to relieve the artistic monotony of his excellent photographs.
