Their ship, the Belgica, wound up locked in the ice of the Bellingshausen Sea for over a year where it became a laboratory of human endurance for its crew of nineteen. Two of the survivors -- Frederck A. Cook and Roald Amundsen -- went on to discover the North Pole and the South Pole respectively. Photo illustrated with both the original images and contemporary color photos of the same regions. Also, two polar authorities, Professor Susan Barr of Norway and Professor T.H. Baughman of the U.S., offer additional insights. 464 pages. Indexed. Centennial Edition Soft Cover
