The English at the North Pole

Book cover
The English at the North Pole was originally published in 1864, being begun even before Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth. This vigorous Arctic tale was used to found and introduce a "Magazine of Adventure," which was continued for some years. The book contains an accurate picture of Arctic life and of the Arctic geography known to the world of 1864. The account of the Franklin expedition and of the persistent and heroic search for its relief is carefully studied and complete, only it necessarily fails to include the later investigations of the American expedition under Lieutenant Schwatka. These finally settled the last details of the historic tragedy. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.
