Summary

No book, no play, no film has such a moment of drama as these pictures of discovery of the tiny encampment of crew of wrecked airship "Italia" on the vast icefields of the polar seas. Food nearly gone, wireless too feeble to use, day after day seeing their rescuers in the air, but never being seen, hope almost abandoned, then ... food ... and hope from the skies! The search and discovery from the air of marooned crew of wrecked polar airship "Italia".
