True Tales of Arctic Heroism in the New World

"True Tales of Arctic Heroism in the New World" by Major-General A. W. Greely is an early 20th-century book that tells real stories of courage and determination in the Arctic. The author wants to remember the brave actions of explorers in North America's Arctic area, and focuses on the inspiring actions of ordinary men and women during these trips through the wild during Arctic exploration. Greely wants to show true events, not made-up stories, and mentions well-known people like Henry Hudson and Sir John Franklin, but also talks about the many unsung heroes who helped make these brave expeditions possible, hoping to motivate future explorers.
