Random Library Hardcover Good Size: 8x6x1; Hardback Pictorial Cover Book is in Good condition with a tight binding and mostly clean crisp pages with some minor soiling. This is an ex-library book with minimum library markings, as the pocket and due sheet have been removed from inside the back cover. There is some soiling to some outside page ends, but it has little to no effect to the inside pages themselves. Outside pictorial covers show some soiling and some wear to include the outside corners and edges. No Dust Jacket as this is the Pictorial Cover Edition. Landmark Books and World Landmark Books are accurate, in-depth stories for young people in the 9-15 year old range. These living histories were written by award-winning authors or by men and women who experienced the events first hand. Written during the 1950's and 1960's and illustrated either with two-color drawings or clear photographs, the books are informative, enjoyable, and well worth reading and collecting. Landmark Book #27. For those who would like to follow in the footsteps of Peary and Byrd, this book offers the assurance that there are still many avenues open for possible polar exploration. Armchair explorers will enjoy it too, for it is filled with discovery, suspense, nick-of-time rescues, and the self-sacrifice that makes real heroes. Wonderfully illustrated by the talented and famous Lynd Ward.
