Beyond the Edge
|
For nearly two thousand years, men and women have sought to find Earth's elusive northernmost point of land. In Beyond the Edge, Gerald Johnson chronicles the search for this unique and mysterious place.
The journey joins together vastly different civilizations and eras in a common quest. The ancient Greeks, the Vikings, and European and American explorers-past and present-all share the ambition, courage, and persistence needed to find and to understand a frozen land of light and darkness called Thule.
How can it be that explorers, scientists, and adventurers have all been drawn into the challenge of finding this northernmost point? What began simply as a geographical search has become something more. And yet a question remains: have we truly discovered one of our planet's last frontiers?
Based on years of research and his own exploration, Gerald Johnson tells the story of the triumphs and defeats of these brave explorers. Never before has this overlooked aspect of our world's history been documented in this way and told by someone who has himself looked out upon this legendary vista.
