⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️☆ A slow burn, but rewarding. The second half was excellent. - Monica L.

"Andrée and His Balloon" by Henri Lachambre is a captivating account of Swedish explorer Salomon August Andrée's ill-fated attempt to reach the North Pole in a hydrogen balloon in 1897. The book chronicles the meticulous planning, the excitement of the journey, and the tragic outcome, as the balloon disappeared without a trace. Lachambre's detailed narrative provides a fascinating insight into the incredible bravery and determination of Andrée and his companions, as well as the dangers and uncertainties of early polar exploration. This classic book is a gripping tale of adventure, perseverance, and the relentless pursuit of the unknown, making it a must-read for anyone interested in the history of exploration and the human spirit.
