Beyond the Edge: The Search for Ultima Thule, the Northernmost Land on Earth
No Customer Reviews
Ultima Thule-the world's northernmost piece of land. For hundreds of years, explorers have tried to find-and to prove-where this elusive piece of terrain truly resides. Surrounded by the fierce conditions of the Arctic, this ongoing quest has been as controversial as it is dangerous. Beyond the Edge: The Search for Ultima Thule is one of the few books to chronicle the exploration, navigation, mapping, and debate surrounding the northernmost lands. An Arctic explorer himself, Dr. Gerald, Johnson tells the story of this little-know part of history through rare firsthand accounts of expeditions, detailed maps, and historical documents and photos. His engaging writing style brings to life a narrative sure to capture the imagination of history buffs, academics, and all readers interested in man's quest for the unknown. Book jacket.
