In the power of the polar forces

Drama is close in this book that marks 100 years of sealing from Sunnmøre. We join the sailing ship "Gunhild" on the Arctic Ocean in 1908. Further about how they were hijacked and tricked the English navy. Read about the dramatic trip of "Aarvak" in 1920 and how they got free after fasting on the ice for several weeks. 24 polar bears were the food for those weeks. Read about a man overboard in the storm, locked alone in the cabin, how they managed a floating mine, and how they changed the propeller in the ice. You also get to see the ship "Riis" sink in Lake Kvitesjøen.
