Seven Years In Tibet [Sealed ]
by Heinrich Harrer
Easton Press. Very Fine; Sealed in Publisher's Wrap. Still in publisher's original wrapping. A scarce handsome brown full leather Collector's Edition of Harrer's classic book, signed by the author on the signature page. Originally published in 1953. This book tells of the author's autobiographical experience escaping from a British internment camp in northern India during World War II to the Tibetan capital of Lhasa where he established a strong relationship as a friend and tutor to the young Dalai Lama. Seven years later he was forced to flee Tibet when the Chinese overtook the country. It is his experiences during those seven years that give the story it's name. Mr. Harrer was born in 1912 and passed away in 2006 at the age of 93. In 1997 a major motion picture was made based n this book, starring Brad Pitt as Heinrich Harrer and David Thewlis as his companion, Peter Aufschnaiter. Reportedly David Thewlis is banned from ever entering China because of his role in this movie. In fine brown leather with gold gilt cover designs and page edges, moire silk endpapers and bound-in silk bookmark. Still in the original shrinkwrap and includes the publisher's note card and Certificate of Authenticity from Easton Press. Parrish Books guarantees all signatures as authentic.

Harrer [two lines of Tibetan script] Washington, Oct. 1954" and "March 1955. In the meantime I have the pleasure and privilige [sic] to call above 'Mr.' my friend 'Toppy' Heinrich". This is a great association copy in the supplied Book Club dust jacket, issued in the same year. The recipient, Walter Meayers "Toppy" Edwards (1908-1994), was a British-born picture editor, photographer, and writer for the National Geographic Society, who won the National Press Photographers Picture of the Year Award in 1969 and 1972. Edwards was a member of the Explorer's Club in New York City. He was author and photographer for seven National Geographic magazine articles and was the photographer for 11 others, on subjects that included Micronesia, Canada, and a canoe trip down the Potomac River. During the late 1920s he worked in the Paris bureau of the New York Times-Wide World Photos and for the Topical Press Agency in London. In 1930, he came to the United States and settled in Washington, where he worked for Harris & Ewing photographers before joining National Geographic. In 1937, he married Mary Woodward Worrall, the year after becoming a naturalised American citizen. In the enclosed letter, addressed to to Mary Edwards and dated 29 January 1998, Harrer writes, "I'm sorry to hear that Toppy passed away, he was always a friend and very helpful." He also reflects on the 1997 film adaptation of his Seven Years in Tibet starring Brad Pitt: "the movie has not much to do with my character - but it is very helpful for the Tibetan cause." The related ephemera includes: - a silver gelatin photograph of Harrer with Sir John Hunt and Fred Rössuer at an international race in 1956, inscribed to "Toppy" Edwards, captioned, and signed "Heinrich," (99 x 143 mm) - a blank postcard from the Heinrich Harrer Museum, - a 14-page typescript entitled "Delight in Big Adventure: Heinrich Harrer, man and explorer," stamped "translated by Mrs Kinney, August 18, 1972" - a leaf from The Explorers Newsletter of April-June 1992, - a 3-page press cutting of a review of the film, - and a small note from Mary Edwards with a reference to My Life in Forbidden Lhasa, by Harrer. "This is the action-packed story of a young adventurer's escape from a British internment camp in India during World War II and his dramatic trek through rugged Himalayan passes to sanctuary in the Forbidden City of Lhasa" (jacket blurb). Harrer (1912-2006) was a distinguished Austrian mountaineer, part of the four-man team who made the first successful ascent of the north face of the Eiger in 1938. Seven Years in Tibet, published the preceding year in the UK and in German in 1952, was a runaway best-seller and translated into 53 languages. It gives a glimpse of the old Tibet before the Chinese invasion of 1950. Octavo. Original red quarter cloth, gilt-lettered spine, black cloth boards with gilt stamp of Lhasa to front cover. With supplied Book Club dust jacket. Double-page monochrome pictorial title page, 45 illustrations from photographs, and double-page regional map. Corners a little rubbed, the binding otherwise sharp, internally crisp. A near-fine copy in the good only jacket, crude tape repairs to extremities, spine sunned.

Seven Years in Tibet
by Heinrich Harrer
After his escape from a British prisoner-of-war camp in India, Heinrich Harrer spent seven years among the Tibetan People and recounted his experiences in this memoir called by the Indian novelist and travel writer Santa Rama Rau one of the grandest and most incredible adventure stories I have ever read. Â Harrer became the unofficial secular tutor to the Dalai Lama when His Holiness was fourteen years old. He and the Dalai Lama remained lifelong friends. Seven Years in Tibet offers rare insights into Tibet's mysticism and beauty which Harrer's photogravures, produced from the original negatives, further illuminate. Introduction by the Dalai Lama. Map insert of Harrer's Trek. Six gravure plates made from photographs by the author. Edition limited to 300 numbered copies. Each book signed by Heinrich Harrer. We have bound our books in many extraordinary styles, but none so authentically exotic as Seven Years in Tibet. The cover is pure Bure silk, imported from India. Protecting the cover is a cotton sleeve, known as a pi-chu , which is encased front and back by a pair of magnolia wood boards, or lepshing. The top board is incised with a Tibetan good-luck charm cut by monks of the Tibetan Refugee Center in Darjeeling, India. One Volume, 9 x 13 . As the publisher, we unconditionally guarantee that all books are authentic and the condition is As New (NOS).
