Some expedition members questioned Robert Peary's decision to take a black man on the final leg of the Arctic journey. Others defended it, citing Henson's popularity with the Inuit, whose language and skills he'd mastered. This title contains material from The Explorer Club's archives, and reference to Henson's correspondence with the club.
