Item description from seller

First separate edition. 8vo. pp. 682 - 716; numerous tables and charts; very good in the original self- wrappers. Hubbard presents the findings of an analysis made by Mitchell and Duvall of Peary's astronomical observations near the North Pole and on northern Ellesmere Island. The accompanying tables, and the discussion concerning their implications, shed important light on Peary's claims to the attainment of the Pole.
