In 1893 Fridtjof Nansen set sail for the North Pole in the Fram, a
ship specially designed to be frozen into the polar ice cap,
withstand its crushing pressures and drift to the North Pole as a
scientific experiment to prove that the polar cap was a sheet of
ice floating on the oceans. Experts said that such a mission was
tantamount to suicide. His disappearance for three years created
such a media sensation that when he was found paddling back to
civilisation dressed in walrus skin his stirring first-person
account of the expedition's historic achievements became an instant
international bestseller, the first of its kind!
