Iceland and Greenland by Austin H. Clark is a comprehensive book that provides an in-depth exploration of the two Nordic countries. The book is divided into two parts, with the first section focusing on Iceland and the second on Greenland. The author begins by introducing Iceland's geography, history, and culture. He covers topics such as the country's volcanic landscape, Viking settlements, and unique language. Clark also delves into Iceland's contemporary society, including its political system, economy, and tourism industry. The second part of the book is dedicated to Greenland, a country that is often overlooked in discussions of the Arctic region. Clark provides a detailed account of Greenland's history, from the arrival of the first Inuit settlers to the present day. He also discusses the country's geography, including its ice sheet and glaciers, and the impact of climate change on the region. Throughout the book, Clark uses his extensive knowledge of the natural sciences to provide insights into the geological, biological, and climatological processes that have shaped Iceland and Greenland. He also includes numerous photographs and illustrations to help readers visualize the landscapes and wildlife of these remote regions. Overall, Iceland and Greenland is an informative and engaging book that will appeal to anyone interested in the natural and cultural history of the Nordic countries.Smithsonian Institution War Background Studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
