Much like Anson, he was an explorer (6)
I believe the answer is:
nansen
'explorer' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Norwegian explorer ' mean 'nansen' so perhaps 'explorer' could also mean 'nansen')
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Another definition for nansen that I've seen is " Fridtjof --, Norwegian Arctic explorer 1861-1930".)
I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
