Preface to the electronic edition
Nansen set out on this journey in August 1913 and his book
Gjennem Sibirien was published in
Norwegian in the autumn of 1914, after the outbreak of The Great
War. This English translation was published the same year. The book
was digitized in June 2010 by Nasjonalbiblioteket, Norway, from where
the scanned images and OCR text were copied to Project Runeberg in May
2019.
This volume was scanned by the Norwegian National Library,
from where the scanned images were copied to Project Runeberg.
We very much appreciate that they have made this possible
and want to encourage other digital library projects to
follow their example. Read more about Project Runeberg's
image sources.
