Book excerpt: Excerpt from First at the North Pole or Two Boys in the Arctic Circle In penning this volume I have had a twofold purpose in mind: the first to show what pure grit and determination can do under the most trying of circumstances, and the second to give my readers an insight into Esquimaux life and habits, and to relate what great explorers like Franklin, Kane, Hall, delong, Nansen, Cook, and Peary have done to open up this weird and mysterious portion of our globe.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Some Antiquities in the Neighbourhood of Dunecht House Aberdeenshire It was known to the archaeologist that there were ogam inscriptions in the district, two Of them being among the most important in Caledonia; and that within an easy motor drive there was a minuscule inscription of six lines Of which no satisfactory explanation had been given. This inscription they had visited in a previous year. Further, the quick eye Of the hostess of Dunecht had caught sight of some curious sculptures on a stone by the road-side on the way to the minus cule inscription; and other like stones in the neighbourhood had been shewn in Stuart's two volumes of Sculptural Stones of Scotland. The suggestion was then made that for the sake of visitors at Dunecht a sort Of guide book should be prepared, giving some simple description of the several Objects and their meaning and uses.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Finding the North Pole: Commander Peary's Discovery, April 6, 1909 and Cook's Own Story of His Claim The arguments against the winter night march were as fol lows: That we could not procure fresh water to drink by melting the snows with our alcohol lamps because the snow where we found it in the winter season was saturated with salt; the grinding and pulverizing of the salt-water hummocks, by the wind-driven snow acting as a sand blast, mixed the salt ice with the snow. As a point to remember I will here state the fact that during the whole of the drift of the jeannette, twenty-two months, we were never able to procure one pound of fresh-water snow, not even out of the ship's tops, that was fresh enough when melted to make potable water. Every ounce of water used in the Jeannette for drinking purposes was distilled. To travel in the Arctic darkness heretofore had always seemed impossible because of the inability to see how to go, or follow a compass course.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ice Desert: A Sequel to "the English at the North Pole" Captain Hatteeas's design was a bold one; he had meant that England should have the glory of the discovery of the world's boreal Pole. He had done all that human power could do. After having struggled for nine months with currents and tempests; after breaking up icebergs and getting through ice-banks in the most terrible winter ever experienced in these hyperborean latitudes; after having confirmed the discoveries of his predecessors, and taken his brig, the Forward, on beyond the known seas - in short, after having accomplished half his task, he saw his great scheme crushed! The treason, or rather the discouragement, of his crew, worn by their trials and the criminal folly of their leaders, left him in a frightful position; out of eighteen men only four remained, and these four were abandoned without supplies, without a ship, at more than 2,500 miles from their country! The explosion of the Forward, which had just taken place before their eyes, took away their last means of existence.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Siege of the South Pole In trying to elucidate the origin as well as to describe the events of the various expeditions, I have assumed that from the historical point of view the motive and the aim are as important as the resulting achievement or failure. The story is told to the best of my power with an impartial mind, and scrupulously follows the facts; if any error has been made as to the narrative it is a mistake and not due to any bias. Where an opinion is expressed that Opinion is my own, and though I consider it right it may possibly seem wrong to some.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Andree at the North Pole: With Details of His Fate The idea of reaching the North Pole in a balloon occurred to Andree in l882 3, while he was spend ing the winter in Spitzbergen as a member of a scientific expedition. This idea grew upon him during years of subsequent toil and study, in the course of which a number of notable aerial voyages gave him the necessary training and experience, especially that of the lgth of October, 1893, when he was carried by a westerly wind across the Baltic to Finland, and that of the 29th of November, 1894, when he was carried three hundred miles across the Baltic from Gothenburg to the Island of Gothland.
