As New in As New jacket. 2000 Abridged Edition: 508 pages, illustrated, maps b/w photos. Gift inscription on front end paper otherwise contents clean. Appears unread. Fridtjof Nansen (October 10, 1861-May 13, 1930) was born in Store Frĝen, Oslo. He made his first voyage to Greenland waters in a sealing ship in 1882, and in 1888-89 succeeded in crossing the Greenland icefield on skis from East to West. In 1893, he sailed to the Arctic in the Fram (a purpose-built, round-hulled ship later used by Roald Amundsen to transport his expedition to Antarctica), which was deliberately allowed to drift north through the ice, a journey that took more than three years. When it was apparent that Fram would not reach the North Pole, Nansen, accompanied by Hjalmar Johansen (1867-1923), continued north on foot and reached 86° 14´ N, the highest latitude then attained. The two men were forced to spend the winter, surviving on walrus blubber and polar bear meat, on Frans Josef's Land, where they eventually connected with a British expedition.
