Amundsen, Roald: The North-West Passage (Illustrated).v1. 04 Dec 2013

The holy grail of so many daring sailing expeditions into the frozen wastes, the fabled Nortwest Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific, was finally conquered by seven men in the little craft «Gjöa». Though short on the death and life survival dramas of their failed predecessors, the account of their journey is still an enjoyable read, not least because of Amundsens description of the life of the inuit they met, the last generation to live isolated from the rest of the world.
