Description of the book "Farthest North: The Incredible Three-Year Voyage to the Frozen Latitudes of the North": In 1893 Fridtjof Nansen set sail for the North Pole in the Fram, a ship specially designed to be frozen into the polar ice cap, withstand its crushing pressures, and travel north with the sea's drift. Although by then he had lost his record for the farthest north, the patina of the Fram expedition still somehow clung to him. It lasted the rest of his life. It lingered through his later career as a diplomat and as an international civil servant. Between 1906 and 1908 he was the first ambassador of an independent Norway in London.
