London: Adams and Charles Black, 1947. [Same photographs as in the first edition (1940) with a few changes to the text. Smythe, who died in 1949, had a good eye for composition and no hesitation in climbing to the right spot to make photographs, which are well reproduced one to a page. Includes the Eastern Alps, Central Alps, Bernese Oberland, Pennine Alps, and the Range of Mont Blanc. Excellent views of the Matterhorn, glaciers (before receding in recent decades), Mont Blanc, etc.] Large octavo, good in red cloth with good edge-worn protected dust jacket. Water stains to edges of a few pages.
