Astrup and Peary had caused an international sensation with their 1300 mile trek across Northern Greenland. Astrup had helped pioneer the combination of skiing and dog sledging, and was infatuated with the life of the Inuit. He had impressed Peary and had established warm friendships with the other expedition members. On his arrival in Norway, he was widely celebrated in the media and elsewhere, and gave a number of lectures in southern Norway. After receiving international recognition for his explorations and his recently published book, and in the midst of planning new expeditions to the Polar Regions, he was found dead in the mountains of Hjerkinn, mid Norway. He was only 24 years old. Today, sadly, Astrup is little known outside the realm of Arctic historians. How and why did his disappearance from popular knowledge occur, and who was this shooting star in the polar world? This first book in English on Eivind Astrup tells the story of his short life in the Arctic. It contains many of Astrup's writings, his communications with Peary, excerpts from previously unpublished letters and reports, his Inuit dictionary, and more than 480 original photos, maps, and newspaper articles.

Hardback. Geir O. Klover, Frammuseet. In the late 19th century, the Norwegian Artic explorer Fridtjof Nansen undertook a pioneering expedition: he wanted to reach the North Pole with the specially designed ship Fram. The Nansen Photographs recounts this expedition, from the launch in 1890 through to the end of Nansen's international lecture tour in 1897, using original photographs alongside personal diary entries from Nansen and seven of his crew members. Together, they illustrate in a poignant and sometimes disconcerting way how the expedition members went about their daily lives and conducted their research, the conflicts they faced, and how they ultimately brought their daring undertaking to its successful conclusion. This book brings new life to previously known facts and introduces the reader to hundreds of previously unknown photographs from the expedition. The large format of the book brings the smaller details in the photographs to the forefront, providing new insight into the work and life on board, the equipment and the clothing. Opposing diary entries from Nansen and the men about the same situations show that life on board was not always easy and tell a gripping story of survival and the human condition. Nansen's lack of empathy and practical skills caused frustration among the men, and several of them resorted to fists to sort out their differences, but nonetheless they all pulled through and set a new standard for arctic expeditions to come. When Nansen leaves the ship for his legendary 18 month journey with Hjalmar Johansen towards the North Pole, we follow both Nansen and Johansen and the crew left on board through their photographs and diaries. The return to Norway and the spectacular celebration is told in detail through photographs, newspaper reports, speeches, menus and ephemera. This stunning 712-page book comes with an illustrated dustjacket and contains 850 photographs and illustrations, 35 ship drawings and 25 maps. AUTHOR: Geir O. Klover is the director of the Fram Museum in Oslo and author, co-author and editor of a number of books on polar expeditions. A contributor to several travelling exhibitions on polar history, he has given lectures on most of the continents - including the Arctic and Antarctic. Not only does the Fram Museum house the original ship from Fridtjof Nansen's expeditions, the building was also comprehensively modernised under Klover's management and was honoured with the prestigious THEA Award for Outstanding Achievement in 2020. SELLING POINTS: . Experience a legendary historic Arctic expedition hands-on: Original photos and diary entries will make you shiver, tremble and marvel with excitement . A triumph of modern science: the Fram's voyage into the arctic ice co-founded the discipline of oceanography and revolutionised the way future expeditions were organised and run . 2022 marks the centenary of the Nobel Peace Prize awarded to Fridtjof Nansen for his commitment to refugees and stateless people 850 colour, 60 b/w illustrations.
