In 1952 six young men left Paris by car for eastern Turkey, with twin objectives of climbing Mount Ararat (16,946’) and finding Noah's Ark. This is an account of the formidable obstacles and fantastic experiences the expedition encountered on their 14,000 mile journey. From the collection of American mountaineer Richard Irvin with his signature.
