Worldwide Arctic : in faces and events

Зонн И.С. ( Zonn I. )

The Arctic is a harsh and mysterious region of the planet. For centuries its northern cap has attracted the attention of all humankind. And to this day it keeps its secrets. Many important tales of success and tragedy are connected to it. Conquering the Arctic in the name of science, seafaring, industry, trade and mining natural resources continues to be the moving force behind world history. Involved in this are people driven by national and personal pride and rational, economic and political calculations. The Arctic expeditions set the stage for various oceanographic investigations, which remain at the head of diverse scientific disciplines to this day. For the first time, this book puts forward in chronological order and conceivable volume, documented historical events, many of which have become landmark events in the discovery and settlement of the Arctic.
