Peary counters Cook claims on North Pole voyage details
In a signed statement with Bartlett and Henson, Peary, Borup and others publish the Eskimo testimonies contradicting Dr. Cook's Arctic journey. Eskimo boys recount visits with Cook, denying extensive northward travel and asserting Cook did not reach the pole. The document argues Cook falsified his route and distance, while Peary’s party presents map, dates, and testimonies to support their claim of discovering the pole.
