Georg Hartwig
At the top and bottom of the world lies the polar realm of ice, bear, and long night. Georg Hartwig surveys the Arctic lands, their quadrupeds and birds, the frozen seas, and the history of Iceland. Rich, comprehensive, and full of cold-world wonder. A grand nineteenth-century tour of the polar regions. Journey to the ends of the Earth and meet the life of the frozen world.
