Today is the anniversary of the death in 2002 of writer adventurer Thor Heyerdahl. I remember reading his book about the Kon-Tiki expedition and finding it fascinating. I read it several times while I was a teenager.
There is a page here that has information, photos and links. Go Norway has information in their Famous Norwegians section. The Bradshaw Foundation has excerpts from his lectures. The Kon-Tiki Museum has a web presence here.
The picture above is from Wikipedia.
