The S. S. \u003ci\u003eRoosevelt\u003c\/i\u003e set forth in 1904 to reach the North Pole for the first time with Commander Robert Peary in charge of the expedition. The ice caused too much damage to the ship and was barely able to return to New York for repairs. Peary set out again in 1908, and anchored at Cape Sheridan. This time Peary was victorious. During World War I, the \u003ci\u003eRoosevelt \u003c\/i\u003e worked as a West Coast watch ship and, after the war, was turned into a tug and later abandoned in 1942.  The collection gives an insight to the journey through pictures and an expedition map of the route taken. \u003cp\u003eKeywords specific to this image: Historic, Adventure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eXGYC9C07 \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Period Paper","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":33596656209,"sku":"184178_XGYC9_004","price":43.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1021\/8371\/products\/XGYC9_004.jpg?v=1571711100","url":"https:\/\/www.periodpaper.com\/products\/1907-print-stern-roosevelt-ship-sail-ocean-explore-expedition-boat-peary-arctic-184178-xgyc9-004","provider":"Period Paper Historic Art LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
