Antarctic Explorers: Carsten Borchgrevink
Carsten Egeberg Borchgrevink was born in Norway in 1864. In 1888 Borchgrevink migrated to Australia where, after four years of bouncing around, he became a teacher. It appears safe to claim that Borchgrevink had an inner passion for adventure and exploration. In 1893 he signed on as a "generally useful hand" with the Norwegian sealing and whaling expedition led by Henrik Johan Bull. [eng] |
