Action Ballantyne, Robert Michael: The Giant of the North v1 30 dec 2008

I am aware that this book has been uploaded by Madam Broshkina before, but as it had only a tiny cover and no outline TOC (in PRC and no working TOC in Nick's IMP version)), I took the liberty of uploading this again in all 3 formats (PRC, LRF and IMP), with a new cover and new formatting, of course. My apologies to Madam and nrapallo for this.

Nrapallo said about his book:

This is the tale of a giant Eskimo, Screekinbroot, also called Chingatok. Journey with our young heroes into the frozen tundra and icy waters of the North Pole regions for encounters with Eskimo peoples and to learn about their life and what it is like when the “Kabiunets” comes to the Arctic.

Captain Vane, his son Benjamin, and his two nephews Leo and Alf come in search of the North Pole. When their ship, The White Bear, gets stuck in the ice, the party of mariners face icy adventures and, in the end, “discover” the North Pole. (This was written before the Pole had been discovered.) There they find an old man whose ancestor was John MackIntosh, one of the sailors of Captain Henry Hudson, who had journeyed to the north pole, married, and had children, one of whom was this old man.

Have fun!
