Notă biografică

Fridtjof Nansen was the very first Arctic explorer, scientist, Nobel Prize winner and celebrity who engineered the peaceful secession of Norway from Sweden. The daring adventure story in Farthest North was the spark of inspiration for the world-famous Arctic explorers who came after him - Shackleton, Scott and Amundsen among them.
