About the work

LibriVox recording of The White Czar: A Story of a Polar Bear by Clarence Hawkes. Read in English by Shriya; Lee Stapleton; CTR; Omarius; David Lawrence; Dick Bourgeois-Doyle; JustinPaul; mleigh; Mina Gohari The land of the Eskimo is the most inhospitable desolate portion of Mother Earth inhabited by man. Well has the Eskimo need of his cheerful watch word, or salutation, of Aksuse, which means be strong. This is the story of a Polar Bear and his involvement with his environment and men. But not just any polar bear, the biggest and fiercest of them all. The Czar of the Frozen North, is in a class quite by himself. He is not nearly as large as his cousin the Kadiak bear, but that huge beast inhabits a comparatively small area and is little known, while the white Czar ranges along the shores of the Arctic sea round the entire world. His scientific name, Thalarctos Maritimus, means Bear of the Sea. - Summary by phil c and the author
