Vagrant Viking: My Life and Adventures

4.2/5 ( ratings)

Peter Freuchen, a Danish arctic adventurer, writes with the friendliest style you could possibly imagine while narrating absolutely harrowing adventures he experienced alone in arctic Greenland. He was the first man to cross the central glacier alone--eskimos didn't feel the need--yet the kindliness of his style makes you feel that you could have attempted the feat yourself. Maybe you could, now, with the help of his insights... and a few years in Thule with an eskimo wife. But his insights would be no less necessary after such experience. Humans learn best from stories told by their loved ones, these stories will be useful to those who brave the arctic and you will love Peter Freuchen like a grandfather after reading this book.
