AFTER THE NORTH POLE A Story of Survival, Mythmaking, and Melting Ice

Listeners will be riveted by narrator Atli Gunnarsson as he recounts the many trials and tribulations that await explorers who trek to the North Pole. In 1994, Erling Kagge made that journey using nothing but his skis. In a strong Nordic accent, Gunnarsson brings to life both Kagge's personal experience and those of the explorers who came before him. He transports listeners to the wintery tundras of northern Greenland, Norway, and Canada. In a down-to-earth tone that verges on casual, Gunnarson describes the dangers of a polar expedition--no matter how careful the preparation. Gunnarsson's narration is not to be missed.
