Book Description
Polaris of the Snows is a science fiction novel by Charles B. Stilson. Polaris is a young man who lives at the South Pole and finds himself in treacherous adventures within unforgiving milieus. Excerpt: "Probably in all the world there was not the equal of the team of dogs which Polaris had selected for his journey. Their ancestors in the long ago had been the fierce, gray timberwolves of the north. Carefully cross-bred, the strains in their blood were of the wolf, the great Dane, and the mastiff; but the wolf strain held dominant. They had the loyalty of the mastiff, the strength of the great Dane, and the tireless sinews of the wolf. From the environment of their rearing they were well furred and inured to the cold and hardships of the Antarctic. They would travel far."
