1998 Barnes Noble jumbo trade paperback, 2nd printing. Roland Huntford (Scott and Amundsen: Their Race to the South Pole). Behind the great polar explorers of the early twentieth century - Amundsen, Shackleton, Scott in the South and Peary in the North - looms the spirit of Fridtjof Nansen (1861-1930), the mentor of them all. He was the father of modern polar exploration, the last act of territorial discovery before the leap into space began. - Amazon
