Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from With Nansen in the North: A Record of the Fram Expedition in 1893-96
The thirteenth member of the expedition was myself; I engaged to go as stoker, as no other post could be found for me when I applied. My duties as stoker lasted only two months - until we entered the ice. After that I acted as meteorological assistant.
