The hero of this book undoubtedly existed. His name was Jan Welzl. When Petr Sís was a boy, he read with admiration about his polar adventures and dreamed of similar expeditions. He wanted to use his pictures to confess his lasting admiration for his brave compatriot, who was called none other than Eskymo. For the author, he will always remain real and sincere in his longing for a free, true life, his courage, his sense of justice and his love of the rugged outdoors.
This extraordinarily visual book is being reissued in Czech thirty years after its publication.
