Roald Amundsen was a Norwegian explorer, the first man to reach the South Pole on December 14, 1911, and a hero of the age of Antarctic exploration. Before his death in 1928, Amundsen was the first man to travel the Northwest Passage by ship, and one of the first to cross the Arctic by air. This absorbing book communicates the details of Amundsen's dangerous expedition and the weight of his contributions to polar exploration.
