AMERICAN ALPINE JOURNAL COMPREHENSIVE INDEX 1929 – 2010
1
The American Alpine Journal Index 1929-2010 Compiled by Ralph Ferrara and Eve Tallman
INTRODUCTION This index covers the years 1929-2010. Book Reviews are in another document: AAJ Reviews. These compile all previous American Alpine Journal indexes. Included are three cumulative indexes: 1929-1976, 1977-1986, 1987-1996, and the individual volume years 1997-2010. This index is based on the work of the original indexers from the original volumes; as such, inconsistencies exist throughout the years. The 1987-1996 index was used as the standard in both format and content. In all references the year is indicated in bold type, followed by page numbers. References to photographs are listed at the end of each entry. The following abbreviations are used: Obituary: obit.; Illustration: ill.; Portrait: port.; Bibliography: bibl.; Plate: pl.; Mountains: Mts. Standard abbreviations are used for state names. Mountains are listed by their official names and ranges; quotation marks indicate unofficial or alternate names. Book reviews are listed separately following the main index.
