Sinopsis

'True Tales of Arctic Heroism in the New World' recounts the harrowing experiences of early Arctic explorers, with a particular focus on the ill-fated Greely Expedition. Authored by Adolphus Washington Greely, the leader of the expedition, this account offers a firsthand perspective on the challenges, hardships, and ultimate tragedies faced by those who dared to venture into the unforgiving polar regions. Greely details the preparations, the initial optimism, and the slow descent into starvation and despair as the expedition faced unforeseen circumstances and dwindling supplies. The book highlights the bravery and resilience of the men, but also the stark realities of survival in the face of extreme adversity. A poignant testament to human endurance and the cost of exploration, 'True Tales of Arctic Heroism in the New World' remains a compelling historical narrative for anyone fascinated by polar exploration and the indomitable spirit of adventure.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
