TROUBLED BELGICANS

Do you think Cook before his death ever thought about Amundsen and how he was the only one to believe him? Then realized that he would never see Roald again.

Do you think Amundsen died believing that Frederick conquered the North Pole and was happy that he knew him? They were friends that they were both Kings of the Poles
