An American Alpine Club centennial celebration of two of it's original honorary members, both Arctic explorers: Adolphus Washington Greely and George Wallace Melville. Greeley, a career army officer, established Fort Conger on Ellesmere Island. Greeley is also the subject of Ghosts of Cape Sabine, The Harrowing True Story of the Greely Expedition. Melville, a navy man, sailed with George W. De Long aboard the ill-fated Jeanette, trapped in the ice. Melville was aboard the Navy ship that rescued the surviving members of the Greely expedition.  (ARC144, $19.95)
