The Ice Master : The Doomed 1913 Voyage of the KarlukNiven, Jennifer
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"Much of the book's touted value comes from the fact that it relates Albanov's own account of his own ordeal, his ipsissima verba; in light of which its haphazard translation history is especially baffling....Somewhere, lapping at the margins of Albanov's experience, is a great human drama; but it is not revealed in the material that has survived. IN THE LAND OF WHITE DEATH is what it is: one man's lean chronicle of an incredible journey of survival. For anything more, the reader must look to his own imagination."
