People and Islands – Amidst Ice and Errors. Stories of the Discovery and Exploration of the Arctic Ocean Islands
19.99 €
By opening this book, the reader will discover the complex, often dramatic stories of the discovery and exploration of the islands of the Arctic Ocean.

From the time of Catherine the Great to the present day, scientific expeditions have been sent to the Arctic Ocean. They were led by naval officers V. Ya. Chichagov, F. P. Litke, F. P. Wrangel, G. Ya. Sedov, the Austrian K. Weyprecht, and by scientists who would later be called polar explorers—the Norwegian F. Nansen, V. A. Rusanov, E. V. Toll, and G. A. Ushakov. It is the expeditions of these sailors and scientists that this book recounts.
