Travels in the Central Caucasus and Bashan - Douglas W Freshfield

Excerpt from Travels in the Central Caucasus and Bashan: Including Visits to Ararat and Tabreez and Ascents of Kazbek and Elbruz
I owe my best thanks to Mr. Edward Whymper for the skill he has shown in dealing with the rough materials placed at his disposal, a task for which his well-known knowledge of mountain scenery eminently qualified him. I have also to thank Mr. Weller for the care he has taken to make the maps accurate and intelligible.
