Fine condition. 'Probably few outsiders realize the well-nigh incredible toil and hardship entailed in such an achievement as Peary's; and fewer still understand how many years of careful training and preparation there must be before the feat can be even attempted with any chance of success. A "dash for the pole" can be successful only if there have been many preliminary years of painstaking, patient toil. Great physical hardihood and endurance, an iron will and unflinching courage, the power of command, the thirst for adventure, and a keen and far-sighted intelligence-all these must go to the make-up of the successful Arctic explorer; and these, and more than these, have gone to the make-up of the chief of successful Arctic explorers, the man who succeeded where hitherto even the best and the bravest had failed.' - From the Introduction by Theodore Roosevelt.
