Not only a great story, but also it is very well-written. I thoroughly enjoyed this one.

The Greely Expedition to the Arctic was unlike anything every attempted. Sure, many adventurers had previously tried to find the North Pole, but this was a collaborative international effort to study meteorology, weather, magnetism, and other scientific phenomenon at the far reaches of the north. For two years, 25 (mostly army) men, were secluded at 82 degrees north latitude at Fort Conger. They endured a third of the year without sunlight, achieved a new northernmost record, mapped previously unexplored lands, and all the while, kept meticulous scientific records.This two year mission was so successful because of Commander Greely. “Adolphus Greely was ambitious and dedicated, a complex figure with ta powerful intellect; he was equally versed in science, mathematics, language, culture, history, and the arts. A true polymath. A man of destiny. But it was his leadership, perhaps above all else, that should be remembered.â€When their two years was concluded, every man of the team was still in excellent condition. But because no resupply ships were able to access them at Fort Conger, they had orders to move south to hopefully rendezvous with a relief vessel. I won’t get into all the bureaucratic and logistical things that went wrong leading up to their departure from Fort Conger because there’s just too much to cover (and you should read about it yourself). This is where things turned south (pun intended) for Greely’s team. The next 8 months would be horrific. But, “Th.

What an absolutely amazing story. The level of heroism, and the beauty of the ice are captured in writing. There is a lot of humanity in this book. Buddy gets to the nucleus of the story easily and take you along the rollercoster of emotions. People fighting to survive and uphold duty in the face of otherworldly suffering. The stresses of command where oftentimes one must choose the lesser of two evils. There is also the humanity of the loved ones fighting to bring home the ones they love and navigating societal bureaucracy to do so. The human failure of blame. Greeley in his time was at the edge of man’s achievements. At times early in the book you feel eager to dislike certain characters but at the end the amount of suffering and heroism displayed by each man you feel yourself choking back embarrassed tears for thinking badly of any of them. The story is absolutely beautifully told. This is on par with Hampton Sides “The Kingdom of Ice” and Jennifer Niven “The Ice Master” I would recommend this and his other book Conquistador (Another amazing book – A personal fav) I have not yet read Buddy’s Geronimo book but plan to.

Labyrinth of Ice by Buddy LevyThis gripping story of the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition in the 1880s will have you on edge from beginning to end. The harrowing tale of Adolphus Greely and his intrepid crew of twenty five men exploring the Arctic had me turning pages faster than I ever have for any book. Ever!Survival is at the core, and later, while awaiting rescue, this group led by Lieutenant Greely will experience the highs and lows of Arctic exploration and endurance. How did anyone survive the below zero temperatures day after day? The darkness of winter? The eventual lack of food and water? The tedium in the wait for and uncertainty of rescue?Secondary to Greely’s expedition in the Arctic are the rescue missions set to find Greely and his crew, eventually spurred on by Henrietta, Greely’s wife. Nothing is easy in this polar region. Will the rescue teams find Greely and his team in time to bring home survivors?For lovers of well-told real life adventure stories, Labyrinth of Ice is a five star read you won’t easily forget.My sincere thanks to #NetGalley and #StMartinsPress for and ARC for my review.

Another tragic and heroic saga in polar exploration; if you have NOT read Roland Huntford’s The Last Place on Earth, do so (Scott and Amundsen’s race to the South Pole, a masterpiece in management style differences and outcomes.)I was not familiar with this polar expedition to the Farthest North so I was fascinated to add this to my polar exploration reading list.Interestingly, the leadership style of Greely included consensus (something Amundsen did well and Scott not so well.) However poor planning (which is what got Scott in trouble) resulted in tragedy even worse than the Scott failure at the South Pole.Harrowing.

In July 1881 Lt. Adolphus Greely and 24 men set off on the adventure of a lifetime: to explore the Arctic, collect two years worth of scientific recordings on the climate, and, if possible, break the English record for Farthest North that had lasted for 300 years. None of the men had Arctic experience but Greely had read everything he possibly could on all previous expeditions. They built a base, learned how to last through sunless winters, experienced -30 to -50 degree temperatures, and explored. New areas were mapped, a new Farthest North and Farthest West were reached and they gathered incredibly detailed scientific observations and records for others to examine. For two years they lived successfully in their Arctic fort, but scheduled annual resupply ships never came. So they began to travel 250 miles south to meet the ship that was supposed to pick them up. And then the real challenges began. . .For anyone (like me) who has never read a book on Arctic exploration, Labyrinth of Ice will be a real eye-opener. The weather alone would be enough that most people would never even consider such a trip, yet here was a group of Army men, none with any experience in these kinds of conditions, who were so excited to participate that several of them literally begged to be allowed to join the expedition. There was no giant monetary reward in it for them- they wanted to be known for doing something few had done and to possibly set new records. None of them were scientists but.
