The spine is rather worn and loose and split down the front joint contents in excellent conditon. An album with 108 photographs take by a party of four intrepid ladies travelling through the alpine glaciers of Switzerland and northern Italy in the 1930's. Photographs include Basel Lucerne and its Lake the View from our Window at Beau Sejour Gersau Andermatt Pontresina Roseg Glacier San Moritz The Bernina Pass Tirano Muottas Muraigl The Schofberg 8966 feet To the Roseg Glacier The Tschiervahutte 8070 ft On the Roseg Glacier The Morteratsch Glacier The Boval Hutte 8060 ft The Maloja Pass We Ascend Piz Languard 10722 ft The Albula Bahn Down from Piz Languard. Baedeker's Guide for Switzerland 25th English edition 1913 notes that "with improved facilities for travel the number of visitors to Switzerland has greatly increased of late years and mountaineering ambition has been proportionally stimulated. Summits once deemed well-nigh inaccessible are now scaled annually by travellers from all parts of the world. and even ladies now frequently vie with the stronger sex in their deeds of daring." An interesting piece of women's social history. The 30s saw a period of increased independent travel of women: the infamous feud between the U.S. State Department and feminist journalist Ruth Hale was over passport rights and in the UK women could be included under their husbands passports until August 1988. The Ladies' Alpine Club established in 1907 to cater to female Alpinists à la the original The Alpine Club saw an explosion of popularity especially after Queen Margherita of Italy accepted the position of Honorary President. Female Alpinists were both trendy and transgressive. Acclaimed president of The Alpine Club Captain J. P. Farrar remarked: "It is possible that some unconscious feeling let us say of the novelty of a woman's intrusion into the domain of exploration so long reserved to man may in some quarters have existed. there tended to arise. an atmosphere shall we say of aloofness". The women in the present album seem to have been keen hikers with key details noted regarding their excursions: the page regarding their ascension of Piz Languard's 10722ft makes mention of their rising at 5am start at 6:20am and reaching of the summit at 10:30am. Photos of 'view to Italian border' as well as 'views of Austrian Tyrol'. Also illuminating from an ecological perspective; numerous photos serve as a glimpse into the Alps removed from contemporary accelerated climate change. As an example the photos of Roseg are an hour away from Corvatsch which notably went from a prime summer skiing location to impossible to ski from around 1992. [c.1930] hardcover

France Germany Austria and Italy are all bordering Switzerland. John Tallis 7 November 1817 3 June 1876 was an English cartographic publisher. His company John Tallis and Company published views maps and atlases in London from roughly 1838 to 1851. Tallis set up as a publisher with Frederick Tallis in Cripplegate in 1842; the business moved to Smithfield in 1846 and was dissolved in 1849. From 1851 to 1854 Tallis operated as John Tallis and Company. He started The illustrated news of the world and national portrait gallery of eminent personages in 1858 selling it for £1370 in 1861; it folded in 1863. Wikipedia The most important project John Tallis undertook was the 'Illustrated Atlas' from 1851. The original map we offer here was part of this exceptional Atlas and all the maps it contained are still today considered as the last reminder of an era of lavish map production. Tallis worked the project together with John Rapkin 1815-1876 and it was Rapkin's style and talent that we have to thank for when we marvel at these maps today. What makes these maps so special is the detail of engraved vignettes that surround the map and often show indigenous scenes people in their environment and even more so historical buildings or historical views of towns and cities architecture and landscape. The project of 'The Illustrated Atlas' was designed to be finished just in time for the anxiously awaited "Great Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations" or The Great Exhibition sometimes referred to as the Crystal Palace Exhibition in reference to the temporary structure in which it was held was an international exhibition that took place in Hyde Park London from 1 May to 11 October 1851. It was the first in a series of World's Fairs exhibitions of culture and industry that became popular in the 19th century and it was a much-anticipated event. The Great Exhibition was organized by Henry Cole and Prince Albert husband of the reigning monarch Queen Victoria. It was attended by numerous notable figures of the time including Charles Darwin Samuel Colt members of the Orléanist Royal Family and the writers Charlotte Brontë Charles Dickens Lewis Carroll George Eliot and Alfred Tennyson. Music for the opening was under the direction of Sir George Thomas Smart and the continuous music from the exhibited organs for the Queen's procession was "under the superintendence of William Sterndale Bennett".
