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.
