Copenhagen finds Cook not proven in pole claim
A Copenhagen university special committee report branded Frederick A Cook an impostor for failing to provide original observations or sufficient data to prove his north pole reach. The six-member panel, aided by Knud Rasmussen, found the notebooks and documents lacking crucial details, with Lonsdale noting copies did not faithfully mirror the explorer’s original material.
