My Attainment of the Pole

My Attainment of the Pole

by Frederick A. Cook  •  Robert Bryce (Introduction)

  • EXPLORATION
  • 2001
  • PAPER
  • 624 PAGES

A 90th anniversary edition of Cook's original account of his expedition to the North Pole. This edition, published by The Frederick A. Cook Society, includes several new assessments of the dispute whether he ever made it to the Pole. Many believe that it's likely, despite various claims to the contrary, neither Peary nor Cook stood at ninety degrees north.  (ARC100, $19.95)
