Robert Bartlett
Captain Robert Abram Bartlett was the greatest ice navigator and Arctic explorer of the past two centuries. Born in Brigus, Newfoundland on August 15, 1875, Bartlett was the eldest of 10 children and heir to a family tradition of seafaring men. By the age of 17, he mastered his first ship and began a life-long love affair with the Arctic. Bartlett spent over 50 years of his life mapping and exploring the waters of the Far North and led over 40 expeditions to the Arctic, more than anyone before or since.
