After the North Pole : a story of survival, mythmaking, and melting ice / by Kagge, Erling,author.; Dickson, Kari,translator.; translation of:Kagge, Erling.Nordpolen Natur, myter, eventyrlyst og smeltende is.English.;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 325-343).Throughout recorded human time, few places on Earth have inspired as much fascination as the North Pole. This is an otherworldly place with no latitude and no longitude, a place where the sun rises and stays aloft for six months before setting, plunging the expanse of ice and water into darkness for half a year. Long before we ever journeyed to the North Pole, human beings have wondered what the northernmost point of our planet might be like. It became densely mythologized by writers, thinkers, historians and philosophers across civilizations. Perhaps it was the actual garden of Eden? Or the sunny land of the Hyperboreans, as Herodotus surmised? Only recently did we get to the North Pole -- fending off scurvy, polar bears and frostbite -- to report on its strange wonders. A memoir from the Norwegian explorer recounts his 58-day ski journey to the North Pole, offering a gripping adventure story and a deep reflection on nature, human resilience and the profound significance of this remote region.
