The account of the expedition of the explorer and doctor Frederick Albert Cook who claimed that he had reached the North Pole in 1908. His colleague Robert Peary accused him of lying : for him he didn't really went to the North Pole. Cook tells his version of the story in the form of a memoir about the expedition that took place between 1907 and 1909. He wants to prouve that his trip really happened to exonerate himself because in 1909 a commission from the University of Copenhagen considered that it was unproven that he reached the Pole.
