Cook, Dr Frederick A
MY ATTAINMENT OF THE POLE: Being the Record of the Expedition That First Reached the Boreal Center 1907-1909 With the Final Summary of the Polar Controversy
The Polar Publishing Co 1911. Cloth. Good. 1st Edition; Published by the Polar Publishing Co New York and by Arlen & Co London in 1911. xx 604 pages illustrated frontispiece plus 49 b/w photos. Original covers no dust jacket. Shelf wear top and bottom of spine corners bumped and beginning to fray covers grubby stained. Previous owners signature dated 1924 on front end paper some foxing spotting to some pages of preface creasing to some pages and odd pencil annotation. Cook's original purpose in exploring the region west of Greenland was ostensibly to organise a hunting expedition. Just north of Etah Cook decided that conditions were good enough for an assault on the North Pole and set out on his journey over the sea ice with two Eskimo companions two sledges and 26 dogs. Cook is one of the most controversial figures in the history of polar exploration. His supporters claim that he was the hero of the Belgian Antarctic Expedition the first to climb Mt. McKinley and the first to stand at the North Pole allegedly only four days before Robert Peary. Others insist that Cook faked his claims to both Mt. McKinley and the North Pole and continued a career of deceit by using the mail to defraud investors in a Texas oil promotion for which he was convicted and spent five years in federal prison. The endless controversy and debate continues over what Cook's true accomplishments were. Ricks: p.70; Smith: 1976; Wickersham: 4904 later printing. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: Under 5 kilogram. Category: Arctic & Antarctic; Antarctic; Pictures of this item not already displayed here available upon request. Inventory No: 1983. .
