Title: North of the Circle
Description: First published 1951. From the inside flap of dust jacket: "The rim of the world is girded by the Arctic Circle beyond which lies an area that our imaginations used to people with a few Eskimos, polar bears and little else besides but snow and ice, and blizzards. Today this area is traversed by aeroplanes and white men and women live there in the thousands. Who are they? What do they do, and what are their lives really like? These are the questions that Mr. Illingworth answers and in doing so he has written some beautiful pen-pictures of that "frozen world'" and told some strange and exciting tales of adventure. He reveals a new world, a land of opportunity where fabulous wages are to be earned and, above all, a land where you can LIVE."
