"The mesmerizing, larger-than-life tale of an eccentric adventurer who traversed some of the greatest frontiers of the twentieth century, from uncharted Arctic wastelands to the underground resistance networks of World War II. Freuchen's life seemed ripped from the pages of an adventure novel--and provided fodder for many books of his own.
