Karen Lachenmeyer Keeley This was the first and only book I had read on the Greeley Expedition and was thoroughly captivated until the very end. One of my ancestors, Henry Biederbick was a survivor of the expedition. As a child I was told that one of my ancestors went to the North Pole, but I never imagined the torture he went through until I read the book. Thank you Mr. Guttridge for sharing his story with me.
