British Polar Exploration and Research

By Neville Wright Poulsom

Subjects: Arctic, Antarctic, Medals, Polar exploration

Description: This book is an expansion of Poulsom's earlier contribution (The White Ribbon, 1968) to the subject of medals awarded by British institutions for endeavour in polar regions. The most significant addition is an attempt to provide biographies of the recipients of such medals, a huge task which has generally been done well, but inevitably contains errors.
