It would seem a strange hobby - to travel to the poles of our planet. However, for the Swedish entrepreneur Frederick Paulsen, this has become a real passion. He spent thirteen years to visit all eight poles of land, becoming the first - and so far the only one is a person in history that did it. Why are the poles eight? The fact is that in each hemisphere, in addition to the geographical and magnetic pole, there is also a geomagnetic pole, as well as a pole of relative inaccessibility. The achievement of each of them is a difficult test, but this book is not only about the travels of Paulsen and his comrades. She talks about first -packs and discoverers - including undeservedly forgotten, about the history of the opening of poles and, of course, reports curious facts about the poles themselves. In other words, "8 poles" - a book about people who opened the pole in the past and about those brave travelers who go to them, despite difficulties, and in our time
