This early work by Eva March Tappan was originally published in 1914 and
we are now republishing it with a brand new introductory biography.
'Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Iceland, Greenland, and the Search for the
Poles - The World's Story (Volume 8)' is an educational work that
explores the history of the region through literature and art, including
writings on folk legends and adventures at the poles. Eva March Tappan
was born on 26th December 1854, in Blackstone, Massachusetts, United
States. Tappan began her literary career writing about famous characters
from history in works such as 'In the Days of William the Conqueror'
(1901), and 'In the Days of Queen Elizabeth' (1902). She then developed
an interest in children's books, writing her own and publishing
collections of classic tales.
