Watch the short video and you will understand.He was polar explorer,a humanitarian, and diplomat and led a blessed life.. His books are treasures to be placed where they are readily available for one and all. Truly.... he is the author of many master pieces! Once read they must be shared! There is a Nansen Refugee Award that was established in his honor in 1953.... because of his life's work of repatriation and integration of refugees. A truly remarkable man... his legacy endures.
