Summary:	For a time Richard Byrd reigned as the most admired man in America. He was the first to fly over the North and South Poles as well as the master of Antarctica, the final frontier of the world. Byrd inspired others to literally follow him to the ends of the Earth. He had to overcome brutal conditions and endless rumors about his drinking and his fear of flying. He conquered that fear just as he conquered the Poles. This is the story of the man who remains the greatest explorer in American history.
