Description

No inscriptions or marks. A lovely clean very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or torn with traces of handling. 311pp. This book tells the stories of some of the explorers who vied with each other to be the first to reach the North Pole, sometimes losing their lives and for whom it was the most important thing of all. To quote Robert Edwin Peary - 'a few toes aren't much to give to achieve the Pole'. Plates and maps.
