Description
Series of longish essays -- but with humor and punch and imagination that takes them, out of the conventional essay class. His thesis is that fact is not always fact, nor truth always good. He discusses the educational system showing where it is at fault, and where right. He raises the question as to whether or not explorers will soon be an extinct species -- and argues no. He discusses travelers' tales, the phony Eskimo episode, Mencken's great bathtub hoax, and various explorers of the Far North. Good entertainment.
