Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. A Very Good plus copy in blue cloth boards with a hint of sunning to the top edges and a previous owner name on flyleaf in a Very Good plus unclipped dust j with light wear to the extremity and a damp stain along the bottom edge of the rear panel. Fr…idtjof Nansen was the first to cross Greenland and later succeeded in proving that an ice locked ship would drift with the ocean current as he crossed the Arctic Ocean. Edward Shackleton, himself no stranger to heroics of polar exploration, greatly admired Nansen and here writes affectionately and authoritatively of his Arctic hero.
