Pride - The Survival Story of Ada Blackjack
Listen now
Description
The Deadly Sin this week is dedicated to Vilhjalmur Stefansson. Stefansson's con-man laden pride produced multiple failed Arctic expeditions and was ultimately responsible for sending five people unprepared and underfunded with a quarter of the rations they would need on an expedition to Wrangel Island north of Siberia where all but the crew's seamstress, Ada Blackjack, would perish in the harsh conditions. This is the amazing survival story of Ada Blackjack. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
