‎First edition of Lieutenant A. W. Greely's first short account of the fatal Lady Franklin Bay Expedition (Also known as the Greely expedition). The present account is presented as a commentary to the accompanying map. A more extensive account was published in 1886 (Three Years of Arctic Service) and the full official account was published in 1888 (Report on the Proceedings of the United States Expedition to Lady Franklin Bay, Grinnell Land)The Lady Franklin Bay Expedition of 1881-1884 to Lady Franklin Bay in the Canadian Arctic was led by Lieutenant Adolphus Greely and its purpose was to establish a meteorological-observation station as part of the First International Polar Year, and to collect astronomical and magnetic data. During the expedition, two members of the crew reached a new Farthest North record, but of the original 25 men, only seven survived to return.""The United States expedition during the First International Polar Year, based at Fort Conger, Lady Franklin Bay, about 81°45' N, on the east coast of Ellesmere Island, explored the north coast of Greenland from Cape Bryant to Cape Washington, about 82°30'-83°30"" N, the interior and west coast of Grinnell Land (northern Ellesmere Island), and extended the maping of Hayes Sound, about 79° N, on Ellesmere. As relief ships failed to reach them, members of the party made a march out of the Hall Basin area, all but seven dying of starvation before rescue at Cape Sabine, Smith Sound"" (Arctic Bibliography).‎

Aucune autre superstar actuelle n'est aussi complète que Lady Gaga aujourd'hui.

Elle a atteint un niveau supérieur dans son auto-célébration en s'appuyant sur sa collection de haute couture extrême et souvent controversée. Lady Gaga : Critical Mass Fashion propose un regard en profondeur sur la litanie de justaucorps qui en mettent plein la vue de robes asymétriques et de hauts talons aussi esthétiques que difficiles à porter tous signés Lady Gaga. Les grands couturiers Lady Gaga - de Armani à Hussein Chalayan sans oublier le regretté Alexander McQueen - ils l'ont tous prise sour leurs ailes.

Les 120 images contenues dans ce livre délivrent la superbe démence de sa vision‎
