Byrd, Jr. first left Anarctica, he knew he would return. Both the scope of the strange land and the uncharted scientific promise it held were too much to leave behind forever. Launched during the Great Depression amid great public skepticism, and with funding at its toughest to secure, this second Antarctic journey proved as daring, eventful, and inspiring as any Byrd embarked upon. Admiral Byrd's classic explorations by land, air, and sea transport us to the farthest reaches of the earth. As companions on Byrd's journeys, readers experience the polar landscape through Byrd's own struggles, doubts, revelations, and triumphs and share the excitement of these timeless adventures. Byrd proves to be an honest, sensitive, eloquent writer, humbled by the vast dangerous world of the Antarctic. The challenges of leading men, the difficulties of planning and preparation atop the great frozen mountains and ice pack are sympathetically described. Byrd was an American naval officer who specialized in feats of exploration. He was a recipient of the Medal of Honor, the highest honor for valor given by the United States, and was a pioneering American aviator, polar explorer, and organizer of polar logistics. Aircraft flights in which he served as a navigator and expedition leader crossed the Atlantic Ocean, a segment of the Arctic Ocean, and a segment of the Antarctic Plateau. Byrd's expeditions were the first to reach both the North and South Pole by air. Manufactured in the United States of America at the Van Rees Press. 405 pages. Insured post.

"Let the Blackbird Sing is the story of an immigrant family that in its psychological and spiritual sense serves as a vehicle for defining the substance of the heroic life. Through a succession of musical symbols, Let the Blackbird Sing attempts to suggest the evolution of man's spirit, which in sacrifice, lifts itself from the slough of frustration into a serenity unmarred by either a sense of persecution or of saintliness."--jacket. Exceptional Condition! A remarkable "Fiddler on the Roof" epic poem about refugee-immigrants: Yusef, his wife, Pola, and their daughters. The author wrote her long and evocative poem during five summers in Sandy Cove, Nova Scotia. The blackbird musical symbol is based on the Polish kos, a species of mockingbird.
