Rear board weak repaired/strengthened with glue. Each year thousands of people visit Bob Bartlett's boyhood home located in Brigus Newfoundland and Labrador to catch a glimpse of this famous sealing captain's amazing life. Hawthorne Cottage has been designated a National Historic Site. The Log of Bob Bartlett captures details and experiences that are not widely known about his forty years of adventures. His log details his two most historic feats-his journey with Robert Peary to reach the North Pole and his heroic deed aboard the Karluk-yet it also sketches his early life and some of his most memorable ice travels during and after the Great War. Bartlett made twenty-eight excursions into the Arctic yet one wonders what drove this urge for discovery especially to the most frigid and unforgiving of places. He has been quoted as saying "The truth was I could not stop myself in pursuit of adventure. I was committed to the Arctic. I'd got the poison in my veins." Captain Robert Bob Abram Bartlett August 15 1875 April 28 1946 was a Newfoundland navigator and Arctic explorer of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Born in Brigus Newfoundland Bartlett was the eldest of ten children born to William James Bartlett and Mary J. Leamon and heir to a family tradition of seafaring. He grew up in Hawthorne Cottage in Brigus. By the age of 17 he mastered his first ship and began a lifelong love affair with the Arctic. Bartlett spent more than 50 years mapping and exploring the waters of the Far North and led over 40 expeditions to the Arctic more than anyone before or since. Bartlett was captain of the Roosevelt and accompanied Commander Robert Peary on his attempts to reach the North Pole. He was awarded the Hubbard Medal of the National Geographic Society for breaking the trail through the frozen Arctic Sea to within 150 miles of the pole yet was excluded from the final exploring party possibly due to a rivalry between the two men. Bartlett took a ship and was the first person to sail north of 88° N. In 1914 Bartlett s leadership in the doomed Karluk Expedition helped save the lives of most of its stranded participants after leader Vilhjalmur Stefansson abandoned the expedition. After being stranded for several months Bartlett and Inuit hunter Kataktovik walked 700 miles from Wrangel Island over the ice of the Chukchi Sea and across Siberia and then mounted an expedition from Alaska to rescue his surviving companions on Wrangel Island. He received the highest award from the Royal Geographical Society for his outstanding heroism. In 1917 Bartlett rescued the members of Donald Baxter MacMillan's ill-fated Crocker Land Expedition who had been stuck on the ice for four years. From 1925-1945 at the command of his own schooner the Effie M. Morrissey Bartlett led many important scientific expeditions to the Arctic sponsored by American museums the Explorers Club and the National Geographic Society and he also helped to survey the Arctic for the United States Government during World War II. Bartlett died when he was 71 in a New York hospital from pneumonia and was buried in his hometown of Brigus Newfoundland and Labrador. Hawthorne Cottage Bartlett's place of residence in Brigus is a National Historic Site of Canada. 1909 Bartlett was awarded the Hubbard Medal by the National Geographic Society which is awarded for distinction in exploration discovery and research. In 1927 the Boy Scouts of America made Bartlett an Honorary Scout a new category of Scout created that same year. This distinction was given to "American citizens whose achievements in outdoor activity exploration and worthwhile adventure are of such an exceptional character as to capture the imagination of boys.". Among others who were awarded this distinction were included Richard E. Byrd Charles Lindbergh and Orville Wright. He was awarded an Honorary Fellowship from the American Geographical Society in 1918 and its Daly Medal in 1925. The Canadian Coast Guard vessel CCGS Bartlett is named for Bartlett. Canada Post featured Bartlett on a Canadian postage stamp released on July 10 2009. G. P. Putnam's Sons hardcover
