The Cambridge History of the Polar Regions is a landmark collection
drawing together the history of the Arctic and Antarctica from the
earliest times to the present. Structured as a series of thematic
chapters, an international team of scholars offer a range of
perspectives from environmental history, the history of science and
exploration, cultural history, and the more traditional approaches
of political, social, economic, and imperial history. The volume
considers the centrality of Indigenous experience and the urgent
need to build action in the present on a thorough understanding of
the past. Using historical research based on methods ranging from
archives and print culture to archaeology and oral histories, these
essays provide fresh analyses of the discovery of Antarctica, the
disappearance of Sir John Franklin, the fate of the Norse colony in
Greenland, the origins of the Antarctic Treaty, and much more. This
is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of
our planet.
