Maggiori informazioni sul libro

The vivid narrative captures Rockwell Kent's adventurous voyage from New York to Greenland aboard a 33-foot cutter. After the ship sinks in a storm, the focus shifts to the crew's stranding, their rescue, and interactions with native Greenlanders. Illustrated with Kent's striking wood-block prints, the tale explores the dangers of nor'easters, icebergs, and fog while celebrating the beauty of nature, such as sperm whales and the thrill of reaching land. This captivating account appeals to both seasoned sailors and those new to the sea.
