Note(s) : "The Cambridge History of the Polar Regions is a landmark collection drawing together
the history of the Arctic and Antarctica from the earliest times to the present. Structured
as a series of thematic chapters, an international team of scholars offer a range
of perspectives from environmental history, the history of science and exploration,
cultural history and the more traditional approaches of political, social, economic
and imperial history. The volume considers the centrality of Indigenous experience
and the urgent need to build action in the present on a thorough understanding of
the past. Using historical research based on methods ranging from archives and print
culture to archaeology and oral histories, these essays provide fresh analyses of
the discovery of Antarctica, the disappearance of Sir John Franklin, the fate of the
Norse colony in Greenland, the origins of the Antarctic Treaty and much more. This
is an invaluable resource for anyone interested in the history of our planet"
