"The Conquest of the Poles" is a classic account of man's first expeditions to and exploration of the North and South Poles. Detailing what are amongst the most daring and adventurous expeditions in human history, this volume is not to be missed by those with an interest in historic exploration and the explorers who risked their lives to do it. Contents include: "Six Men Adrift," "Lost Amid the Floes," "Into the Unknown," "Sailing Across the Ice," "The March on the North Pole," "On Board the 'Fram'," "Welcome at Cape Flora," "A Mystery of the Air," "Italy Takes a Share," "Peary's Opening Adventures," etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned introduction on sailing.
