5 out of 5 stars A rousing and true biographical account.......2003-02-07

Polar Extremes: The World Of Lincoln Ellsworth is the historic and engagingly written saga of Lincoln Ellsworth's impressive and hazardous struggle to make aviation history by flying over the earth's Poles. From his 1926 attempt to fly across the North Pole in a dirigible, to flying his custom-made plane over Antarctica in 1935 and discovering a mountain range now called the Ellsworths, Polar Extremes is a compelling biography of a daring and adventures life driven by death-defying passions. Polar Extremes is highly recommended as a rousing and true biographical account and a welcome contribution to the growing library of Aviation History.
