Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adrift in the Arctic Ice Pack: From the History of the First U. S. Grinnell Expedition in Search of Sir John Franklin It was in the summer of 1845 that Sir John Franklin undertook his fourth voyage into the Arctic regions, in search of a northwest passage, and disappeared forever in that icy waste. Franklin's two ships, the Erebus and the Terror, were supposed to be provisioned for three years. When this interval had passed without word of the daring navigator there was grave fear that he had met with disaster. Then began an unparalleled series of search and relief expeditions, public and private, English and American: five separate ones in 1848, three in 1849, ten in 1850, two in 1851, nine in 1852, five in 1853, two in 1854, one in 1855, and one in 1857. Among the earliest of these was one from the United States, known as the first Grinnell expedition, which left New York in May, 1848.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sea of Ice: Or the Arctic Adventurers No work ever was published which has proved so delightful as "Robinson Crusoe." Naturally enough, there have been many imitations of so pleasing a production, such as the "Swiss Family Robinson," the "Robinson Chretien," and others. We make no apology for having conceived and carried out another version, which, though owing its idea to the works above-mentioned, is original in its scene and most of its events. The phenomena of the north have been fully and correctly described on the very best and latest authority. The places described are those visited by Parry and Franklin.

Book Synopsis The Siege and Conquest of the North Pole (Classic Reprint) by : George Bryce
Download or read book The Siege and Conquest of the North Pole (Classic Reprint) written by George Bryce and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Siege and Conquest of the North Pole My chief object in compiling this work has been to supply a brief account of the main efforts which have been made to reach the North Pole. The subject is now so extensive that few have the opportunity of covering the whole ground. While the exciting and specially interesting incidents have not been omitted, the book aims at giving the reader an intelligent idea of the equipment and other means by which the work of exploration has been carried on. The many expeditions which have set out to find a north-west or a north-east passage do not come within the scope of the book, except when they have had some special bearing on the struggle for the Pole. Those who may wish to pursue the subject further by consulting the original authors can be assured that no works of fiction relate greater deeds of heroism than are found in the records of Arctic exploration; and that while they may satisfy their love for the adventurous they will add something to their geographical knowledge.

Book Synopsis 'Mid Snow and Ice by : Charles D. Michael
Download or read book 'Mid Snow and Ice written by Charles D. Michael and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 'Mid Snow and Ice: Stories of Peril in Polar Seas Originally it was the hope of finding an 0 n north-western or north-eastern route to t e Orient. There was also the prospect of exploiting the great m'ueral wealth which was sup sed by some sanguine adventurers to be In den beneath the eternal snows of the far north. But to-day, when the fascination of exploration and discovery is as strong in the hearts of men as ever it was, the reason that urges Arctic and Antarctic voyagers to deeds of bravery is not the prospect of dis covering any new trade route amid the far northern icy seas, nor the hope of finding wealth beneath farthest southern snows. It is solely that certain scientific problems: ay once and for all be solved. The motive is indeed a high one, and the end to be attained may even yet demand immense sacrifices. True it is that the honour of being first at the north and south poles has not fallen to the lot of Englishmen; but at least we have the satisfaction of know ing that it was the work of British explorers that made success for others possible. And we know, too, that the men of our race are ready to meet whatever further demands upon courage and endurance may be neces sary to complete the work of exploration in the northern and southern extremities of the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Adventures in the Ice: A Comprehensive Summary of Arctic Exploration, Discovery, and Adventure; Including Experiences of Captain Penny, the Veteran Whaler, Now First Published Exploration, Discovery, and Adventure are subjects always interesting to those who can appreciate What is heroic and self denying in their fellow-men. Only ignoble natures can remain unmoved by acts of noble enterprise and generous daring. Nowhere have these qualities been more conspicuous than amid the ih clemency of the Arctic Regions. The search for a North-west Passage to the Indies led our seamen to penetrate into the frozen deep, and exposed them to the horrors of utter desolation, cruel privation, and sometimes lingering death. The sufi'erings endured have called forth all the best feelings of the heart, and have exercised the noble power of endurance. The design of this book is to relate some of the most interesting narratives of Adventure in the Ice. The stories of the Norsemen and of explorers before the time of John Cabot are omitted, as the particulars are less authentic than are those subsequent to that period. Throughout the work there is a chronological sequence observed, though this is not strictly main tained in some of the later voyages, When two or three Arctic expeditions were being conducted at the same time.
