| Publisher Description: Though now contested by later explorers, Robert Edwin Peary's trek to the North Pole in 1908 is arguably the first expedition to the North Pole ever made. Braving the elements and losing men along the way, Peary succeeded where those before him had failed. Fully illustrated, The North Pole tells this remarkable story. |
