5.0 out of 5 stars
An extraordinary book,
By torje_eike@compuserve.com (London, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Amundsen Photographs (Hardcover)
Rarely have I read and re-read a book with as much interest as this one. The pictures in the book was thought lost until re-discovered in a loft in Oslo in 1986. It provides an unusual insight into early polar exploration from both a pictoral and literary perspective

An Excellent Record of Exploration History,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Amundsen Photographs (Hardcover)
As opposed to all the badly written adventure fiction books of today, this is an excellent photographic record of Amundsen's adventures. It's a tribute to the man who was among the first to winter in the Antarctic, was the first to reach the South Pole, was the first to fly over the arctic ocean and the North Pole, and was killed while attempting to rescue another expedition that had crashed in the Arctic. A photographic tribute to a truely great man.
