Abstract |
When reading through the accounts of the various IPY-1 expeditions, one is easily struck by the great variation in the courses of each expedition. These reports were originally published in five different languages and each one gives a thorough description of the execution of the specific expedition, including details that for many of us are of far more interest than the meticulously noted scientific observations. |
