A Negro Explorer at the North Pole (Unabridged)
Matthew Henson
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
The wind, a hungry beast, howled across the frozen plains, gnawing at Matthew Henson's exposed skin. Ignoring the bite, he gripped the sled lines tighter, his dark eyes focused on the endless white horizon. For years, he'd braved the unforgiving Arctic alongside Commander Peary, his skills as crucial as the oxygen they carried. Yet, as whispers of reaching the North Pole swirled, Matthew knew the glory might not reach him, a man of color in a world etched in white lines. This is the story of his extraordinary journey, a testament to courage, resilience, and the fight for recognition in the face of the harshest elements and the deepest biases.
