Pov: James Fitzjames
Pressure ridges, McMurdo Sound, Antarctica.

"I did not then, nor will I now, discuss the career of Dr. Cook in his later days. I am wholly unfamiliar with the facts which led to his imprisonment, and I have no desire to know them or have an opinion regarding them. Even had I known that he had been guilty of baser crimes than those with which he was charged, I would still have felt my duty and my inclination to be the same. Whatever Cook may have done, the Cook who did them was not the Dr. Cook I knew as a young man, the soul of honour and kindness, lion-hearted in courage." - Roald Amundsen, My Life As An Explorer (1927)
