A scarce descriptive book about the Lake District with thirty-two monogravure illustrations. Beginning with An Appreciation: The Origin and History of Lakeland it then goes on to describe different areas of the Lakes. With a list of illustrations to front. Ashley Abraham (1876 - 1951) was a climber and photographer who lived in Keswick, Cumberland in the English Lake District. Working with his brother George, he made a photographic record of the exploits of many of the climbing pioneers, especially Owen Glynne Jones, with whom they formed a close climbing partnership from 1896 until his death in 1899. Most of their work was done between 1890 and 1920 and forms a valuable record of the evolution of early rock-climbing in the English Lake District.
