| Summary | "The White Czar: A Story of a Polar Bear" by Clarence Hawkes is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story is likely to revolve around the life and adventures of Eiseeyou, a young Eskimo hunter, alongside the natural world of the Arctic, where he encounters formidable creatures such as the white polar bear, referred to as the Czar.
