Wilson, Woodrow, Letter to, 602 OTHER BOOKS BY DR. COOK You have read Dr. Cook's narrative of his expedition to the North Pole. His other books are of equal interest. Through the First Antarctic Night A narrative of the Belgian South Pole Expedition of 1897, in charge of Commander de Gerlache, with Dr. Cook as surgeon. This expedition came near sharing the fate of Captain Scott of the English expedition. Captain Roald Amundsen, discoverer of the South Pole, in speaking to the Press of the hardships which the members of the Belgica expedition withstood says: "During the winter scurvy broke out and at the same time several of the party showed signs of mental trouble. Dr. Cook proved himself a surgeon equal to the situation. All of his patients recovered. Here I learned to know Dr. Cook and to appreciate him as one of the ablest, most honest, most reliable men I have ever met. Members of the Belgica expedition owe their lives to Dr. Cook, as it was through his ingenious plan of sawing the channel through the pack-ice to open water, thus releasing the ice locked ship, that saved the entire party from death." The above is covered in detail in similar words on pages 19, 20, 23 Volume One of "The South Pole" a late book by Captain Amundsen. On page 24 of the same volume he says: "Upright, honorable, capable and consciencious in the extreme; such is the memory we retain of Dr. Frederick A. Cook." To the Top of the Continent Exploration in Sub-Artic Alaska. A thrilling account of the first ascent of America's highest mountain—Mount McKinley. Dr. Cook has been engaged in exploration for twenty years—the best part of his life—all without pay. He has furnished his own money for most of his expeditions. He is a quiet, unassuming man and has done all of his work with little thought of personal gain or honorary publicity. Quietly he came forward and told us that one of the greatest exploits ever made in mountain climbing was now accomplished. It did not occur to him to beat a drum or blow a trumpet to make this known to the world. The work was accomplished; this was sufficient for him. Little was known of the Mt. McKinley trip until Peary brought it up as a side issue to throw doubt on Dr. Cook's Polar Claim; see page 534 of this book. My Attainment of the Pole
Edition de Luxe Captain Amundsen in speaking of Dr. Cook's Polar trip says: "It was a pity that Peary should besmirch his beautiful work by circulating outrageous accusations against a competitor who had WON THE BATTLE in open field. If Peary is to prove the accusation by the evidence of Cook's two followers, I must confess it is a very weak foundation."
The above books by Dr. Frederick A. Cook have been printed in edition de Luxe, especially for subscription purposes. The regular price is $5.00 each, but to accommodate those further interested in exploration, we have arranged to make a special reduced price; see next page. ....................................
