Image shows the title page of the book Arctic Adventure: My Life in the Frozen North by Peter Freuchen. Quite possibly one of the most interesting humans ever. The page is pleasantly yellowed with age.

Happy Birthday to Peter Freuchen!
Honoring him today by reading one of his incredible tales. A brief search about him should convince you to learn more.
Shout out to my local library for tracking this down!
