The Chelyuskin Adventure

Davies, R.E.G. and Y. Salnikov: 2005 USA, hardcover with dust jacket, 96 pages, with photos and maps. The book recounts the ill-fated Arctic expedition of the SS Chelyuskin, which set sail in 1933 to prove a cargo ship could traverse the Northern Sea Route but became trapped and crushed by ice, stranding its crew for months on the frozen sea. Through discipline, ingenuity, and a dramatic air rescue, nearly all passengers survived, turning the disaster into a celebrated story of Soviet heroism and technological triumph ISBN 9781888962239 In very good condition.
