The Ascent of the Matterhorn

H. Professor Tyndall and the Matterhorn.

Reading edition

In the second edition of Tyndall’s Hours of Exercise in the Alps the Professor made some additional remarks upon his defeat in 1862, and to these remarks I replied in No. 35 of the Alpine Journal. I do not feel that the additional information afforded in these publications possesses the least interest to the majority of my readers, and therefore I do not reprint it; and I refer to it only for the sake of those who may be desirous to pursue the subject.
