"The Story of Polar Conquest" is the story of the many men who devoted their lives to the exploration and dominion of the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Some, like the Norwegian Roald Amundsen, found glory and success at the Poles. Others, like Captain Robert Falcon Scott, ended their lives with blackened flesh and frozen blood on the cruel ice-coasts they sought to conquer. Many names -- Robert Peary, Adolphus Greely, Sir John Franklin, and more -- fill the often tragic annals of Polar conquest. Logan Marshall knew many of these explorers personally, and collected the stories of Polar dominion from previous centuries. Republished for the 100th anniversary of explorer Scott's death, "The Story of Polar Conquest" catalogs the successes, failures, and misadventures of Polar explorers, from Viking long-boats to the search for Scott's body.
