With Axe and Rope in the New Zealand Alps is a memoir written by George Edward Mannering and originally published in 1891. The book is a vivid and exciting account of the author's experiences mountaineering in the Southern Alps of New Zealand during the late 19th century. Mannering describes his adventures climbing some of the highest and most challenging peaks in the region, including Mount Cook, Mount Tasman, and Mount Sefton. He also provides detailed accounts of the dangers and difficulties of mountaineering in this rugged and remote terrain, including avalanches, rock falls, and extreme weather conditions. The book is filled with vivid descriptions of the stunning scenery of the New Zealand Alps, as well as the flora and fauna that inhabit the region. Mannering's writing is engaging and evocative, and his book is a fascinating glimpse into the world of early mountaineering in one of the most beautiful and challenging landscapes on Earth.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
