King of Thule. Biography by Knud Rasmussen
39.99 €
Knud Rasmussen (1839-1933) was a Dane of Eskimo descent, a researcher of Eskimo culture, a collector of Greenlandic myths and sagas, a writer, a traveler, an organizer and participant of seven expeditions to Greenland, and an unofficial ambassador of Greenlanders in Denmark. In 1921-1924, Rasmussen completed the famous "Sled Route" of 18,000 kilometers along the west coast of Greenland, the Canadian Arctic Archipelago, and Alaska. Contemporaries rightly called Knud the King of Thule, the legendary ghost island in northern Europe. Twelve geographical features in Greenland bear Rasmussen's name.
