I'm the author of "Battle of Ink and Ice: A Sensational Tale of News Barons, North Pole Explorers, and the Making of Modern Media" (Viking, 2023). I've been a freelance journalist for nearly 20 years and have written about travel and culture for The Wall Street Journal, The Financial Times, The Paris Review, and dozens of other international publications. I'm originally from Maine and spend my time between the Catskills and NYC.

I enjoy talking with readers - for Book Clubs and 1:1s, find me now on Skolay: skolay.com/writers/darrell-hartman

Quotes by Darrell Hartman  (?)

“A case that should have been decided by expert testimony and hard evidence now hinged on personal character and credibility. Peary had shown himself to be surprisingly deficient in both, even before new tales of his appalling conduct emerged in mid-September.”
Darrell Hartman, Battle of Ink and Ice: A Sensational Story of News Barons, North Pole Explorers, and the Making of Modern Media

“The office had just two telephones. Ochs bought more, as well as several typewriters, ignoring the protests of old-timers who preferred to write in longhand and disliked the constant rattling of the newfangled contraptions.”
Darrell Hartman, Battle of Ink and Ice: A Sensational Story of News Barons, North Pole Explorers, and the Making of Modern Media

“He planned to consume two thirds of his food (pemmican, mostly) on the outward journey and one third of it on the return, when the dogs could pull lightened loads and be slaughtered and fed to each other—a brutally effective way of conserving food weight that he had used before.”
Darrell Hartman, Battle of Ink and Ice: A Sensational Story of News Barons, North Pole Explorers, and the Making of Modern Media
