He served as ship's surgeon with the First Grinnell Expedition and as leader of the second Grinnell Expedition in search of John Franklin. After his death, spiritualist Margaret Fox claimed that she was Kane's common-law wife, but his family refused to grant her a widow's annuity. Five years later she filed a lawsuit, and both parties reached an agreement: an annuity for Fox in exchange for Kane's correspondence with her. Charging that the Kanes had not kept their word, she published this volume anonymously.

Book Synopsis Race To The Polar Sea by : Ken McGoogan
Download or read book Race To The Polar Sea written by Ken McGoogan and published by HarperCollins Canada. This book was released on 2010-08-01 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Elisha Kent Kane, scion of a wealthy and influential Philadelphia family, became a legend of 19th-century America. Before he was 30, he had descended into a volcano in the Philippines, infiltrated a company of slave traders in West Africa and narrowly survived hand-to-hand combat in the Sierra Madre while carrying a secret message from the president of the United States. Yet Kane would achieve his greatest fame by exploring the High Arctic, an adventure that began when he sailed in search of the lost expedition of Sir John Franklin and the open water of an alleged “polar sea” around the North Pole. In the mid-1850s, Kane pushed farther north than any other voyager, then spent two years trapped in the ice before leading a desperate but heroic retreat that only added to his legend. Kane also enjoyed a secret love affair with a young Canadian-born spiritualist named Maggie Fox, a celebrated “spirit rapper” deemed unsuitable by his family. How this relationship combined with Kane’s tragic early death to deny him his rightful place in history is one of the most dramatic aspects of the book. Race to the Polar Sea tells the story of a romantic adventurer driven by dreams of glory. It is a tale of heroism, courage and conspiracy that evokes an age when the Arctic seemed a white, booming emptiness, beautiful and unknowable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Dr. Elisha Kent Kane: And of Other Distinguished American Explorers; Containing Narratives of Their Researches and Adventures in Remote and Interesting Portions of the Globe Geographical explorers and discoverers constitute a peculiar and distinct class of men; and in many respects their qualities and achievements are homogeneous. Yet, rich as is our literature in historical and biographical works, there is no single volume extant which contains a collection of the lives of the most distinguished Americans of this description. The present writer has endeavored to supply this deficiency, to some extent, in the following pages; and he has selected, as the subjects of his narrative, those individuals who seemed to him to be most remarkable in themselves and to possess the strongest hold on public interest and attention. In preparing this work, the author has appropriated to his use the most reliable sources of information which were accessible, without encroaching upon the rights of others; and an effort has been made to render the biographies as complete as the limits of a single volume would permit.
