1925 1ed Teddy Expedition Dahl Danish Arctic Hunting Iceland Fur Trade Illustrated



‘The Teddy Expedition’ is the story of the third voyage of the Danish auxiliary schooner ‘Teddy’ and her loss in the Polar Sea in 1923. The crew sought refuge on an ice floe and drifted down the Arctic Ocean for two months and nearly 800 miles. Most of the Danish expeditions in the region had as their purpose the development of the Polar fox fur pelt trade, and possible colonization of the area by West Greenlanders. Aside from being an adventure story, there is also much on fox trapping and big game hunting for musk ox, bear, and walrus.



This 1925 first edition includes 60 black and white photogravure illustrations and a map of the routes taken along Iceland and the Greenland Sea.
