Description
Matthew Henson's dreams took him far from his ordinary life. He sought adventures around the world and became a cabin boy on a ship bound for the sea.
Determined to make his mark, Henson proved himself as an explorer, joining a crew that would finally reach the North Pole after decades of danger and perseverance. Told in poetic first-person narration, this story reveals the thrilling tale of a hidden figure from American history.
