Those innocent eyes of my one-year-old daughter welled up right after she fell on the ground, as she was trying to walk on her own, attempting to come to me. I had to leave her alone to play by herself, cause I needed to work for the sake of living, as there was no one to look after both of us. I was about to go to her to lift her up from the floor to give a warm hug, so that she becomes happy once again, but it seemed I could not. Cause even before I could hold her, two muscular hands lifted my daughter up only to hold her tight close to his chest, carefully. She was looking so tiny in his arms, but the most important question was that who is he? He seemed familiar somehow, but I am sure that I have never seen him before. "Momma...Dadda?" Eva, my little daughter babbled, all of a sudden. "No. No. He is not. Come here." I stretched my hands to take Eva back, but the man did not let me. Instead, he chose to say something strange, "I thought I have lost you, Emm. Both of you." "I am sorry, but you might have mistaken, I am not Emm. I am Ange."

Download or read book Farthest North written by Fridjtof Nansen and published by Modern Library. This book was released on 2000-05-12 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1893 Nansen set sail in the Fram, a ship specially designed and built to be frozen into the polar ice cap, withstand its crushing pressures, and travel with the sea's drift closer to the North Pole than anyone had ever gone before. Experts said such a ship couldn't be built and that the voyage was tantamount to suicide. This brilliant first-person account, originally published in 1897, marks the beginning of the modern age of exploration. Nansen vividly describes the dangerous voyage and his 15-month-long dash to the North Pole by sledge. An unforgettable tale and a must-read for any armchair explorer.

Book excerpt: In September of 1893, Norwegian zoologist Fridtjof Nansen and a crew manned the schooner Fram, intending to drift, frozen in the Arctic pack-ice, to the North Pole. When it became clear that they would miss the pole, Nansen and his companion Hjalmar Johansen struck off by themselves. Racing the shrinking pack-ice, they attempted, by dog-sled, to go "farthest north." They survived a winter in a moss hut eating walruses and polar bears, and the public assumed they were dead. In the spring of 1896, after three years of trekking, and having made it to within four degrees of the pole, they returned to safety. Nansen's narrative stands with the best writing on polar exploration.

Fridtjof Nansen had an extraordinary idea of how to get to the North Pole by ship. After discovering that the remains of the boat, wrecked near Russian Siberia, were found in the Northern Atlantic, he presumed that there should be some drift through the North Pole. So, he developed a specifically customized ship that was frozen into an ice cube and crossed the Polar waters in this shape. The vessel did freeze successfully. Yet, the journey was too long, and Nansen left the ship to reach the Pole on skis. He and his companion Hjalmar Johansen left for the pole but didn't manage to get it. However, they were the first people to achieve the farthest north latitude of 86°13.6′N. The story tells about this challenging journey through snow and waters makes a unique record of one of the most incredible northern expeditions.
