Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Arctic Boat Journey in the Autumn After the publication of the main narrative of the expedition, my own memoranda appeared too insig nificant to justify the issue of a separate volume. My friends and other persons represented to me, from time to time, that even minute details of life in a region so remote, so peculiar, and so little linown as that in which I had passed nearly a third of a year, would not fail to interest the general reader; but it needed a stronger inducement than such persuasions to overcome my reluctance to issue a book.

CHAPTER I. INTRODUCTORY. It is well known that the Advance, a brigantine of one hundred and forty-four tons, under command of Dr. E. K. Kane of the United States Navy, sailed from New York, May 30th 1853, on her second cruise to the arctic seas, in search of Sir John Franklin.

The historian of the expedition has left nothing new for me to communicate concerning the more important events of the cruise; and I will detain the reader over this introductory chapter, only long enough to recall such facts as are needed to connect the narrative of Dr. Kane with the events which it is the purpose of this book to record. In consequence of the prevalence of head-winds and calms, the coast of Greenland was not reached until the first of July; but, the season being unusually forward, we made up for lost time by a quick passage through that gauntlet of the Baffin Bay whale fishers, the "middle ice," and were at the seat of our future operations, Smith Strait, by the 7th of August. Having deposited in a cairn on Lyttleton Island, near the mouth of the strait, a record of our proceedings thus far; and having placed on the main land, about two miles farther to the north and east, our Francis' metallic life-boat, together with a...
