In the grand tradition of "Endurance" and "The Worst Journey in the World", Cross offers the tragic tale of Umberto Nobile, one of Italy's premier aeronautical engineers, whose 1928 attempt to land an airship at the North Pole resulted in a crash that stranded the survivors on an ice floe some 300 miles from civilization.
