Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - 'The Arctic Rescue' is a gripping first-hand account of one of the most daring aerial missions in the history of polar exploration. Written by Swedish aviator Einar Lundborg, this narrative provides a detailed look at the 1928 international effort to locate and save the survivors of General… Umberto Nobile's ill-fated 'Italia' airship expedition. After the airship crashed on the pack ice north of Svalbard, Lundborg was instrumental in the rescue, successfully landing his plane on treacherous ice floes to retrieve Nobile under extreme conditions.The book chronicles the immense logistical challenges, the harsh environmental realities of the Arctic, and the high-stakes decisions made during the search operations. Beyond the technical aspects of early aviation, 'The Arctic Rescue' offers a profound look at the courage and international cooperation required to face the unforgiving frozen wilderness. Lundborg's account remains a vital historical document, capturing the tension and heroism of a pivotal moment in the age of exploration. Readers interested in aviation history, Arctic survival, and true adventure will find this chronicle both informative and deeply compelling.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.

The book is Lundborg's account of rescuing General Umberto Nobile and his crew of the Italian dirigible Italia after it crashed on an ice floe while returning from a polar flight of Arctic exploration. From the book's Publisher's Note, "This is the tale of the gallant Swedish expedition to rescue the officers and crew of the Italia, the Italian dirigible that came to grief on the northern ice in May, 1928. The aviator's dramatic adventures here are related by himself, and the circumstances out of which they arose, will be more fully understood upon reference to the brief outline of the Italia's career as printed at the end of the book.".
