Synopsis
This book covers the famous Arctic archipelago (named Spitsbergen when discovered by the Dutch in 1596, but now more commonly referred to as Svalbard - the Viking word for 'cold coast'). On one side there is a clear and uncluttered map of the archipelago, with useful annotations; on the reverse there are excellent biographical summaries of 27 noted explorers (including Horatio Nelson who came here as a 14 year old midshipman!) plus brief descriptions and colour photographs of the more common plants, invertebrates, birds and mammals.

Spitsbergen Explorer (Folded)
Seller: Grand Eagle Retail, Bensenville, IL, U.S.A.
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Folded. Condition: new. Folded. This map is designed to appeal to passengers on cruises that visit Svalbard, but it should also be of interest to those who explore the archipelago in other ways. It includes an explanation of why most of the world calls it Spitsbergen, but Norwegians use the name Svalbard. Special features include illustrated biographies of explorers and other historic figures; notes on the history and unique political status of this land far to the north of the Arctic Circle; locations of Svalbard's national parks and nature reserves (representing more than 50 per cent of the land area); and colour photographs and text on the plants and animal life. Though twice the size of Belgium, 60 per cent of Svalbard is covered by snow and glaciers. Because this map primarily addresses the needs of visitors who explore the area on ships, the emphasis is on popular landing places and geographical features that can be seen from the sea or which are near the shore. With this focus, land-based travellers will find little or no information here about shore-side restaurants, hotels and other lodging places, or highways, railroads and airports. Covers the Arctic archipelago (named Spitsbergen when discovered by the Dutch in 1596, but now commonly referred to as Svalbard). This title features a map of the archipelago, with annotations. It includes biographical summaries of 27 explorers as well as descriptions and colour photographs of the common plants, invertebrates, birds and mammals.
