His original design was to publish a work of more pretentious size, in three parts, to be entitled, respectively, Green land, Iceland, and The Arctic Sea; but, as he found the matter expanding to cumbersome pro portions, he has divided the three parts into as.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from To Greenland and the Pole: A Story of Adventure in the Arctic Regions Prefaces, like dentists, are sometimes necessary evils, and we have to bear with them, putting the best face on the matter that we possibly can. Now, in this preface I want only to tell you that, though in some parts sadness and grief creep into the pages of this book - towards the end, for this was inevitable - on tho whole, you will find little else save joy and jollity throughout. Nansen, the bravo Arctic explorer - whom may God bring back from his daring venture - you will have no difficulty in recognizing as the prototype of my chief hero Reynolds. Rudland Syme is a Greenland surgeon sketched from life; Sigurd was also a real live sailor, and may be so still, for aught I know; while as for honest Joe the mate, he was a shipmate of my own during my first Arctic cruise, and a hearty happy-go-lucky fellow he was. We roughed it together years and years ago, in and on the Sea of Ice, in a way few are called upon to do nowadays. Let me say, further, that the description of tho ice and ice adventures are mostly taken from journals of my own. But I must acknowledge my indebtedness to the First Crossing of Greenland (Nansen), published by Messrs. Longmans, Green, & Co., for my ideas on "skilobning," or snow-shoe travelling as carried out in Norway. I have not followed Nansen's route across the inland ice, however, for being a month earlier in the season I have taken my people farther north, and brought them out at Disko Bay.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Arctic Journal, 1893: A Year Among Ice-Fields and Eskimos I rarely, if ever, take up the thread of our Arctic expe riences without reverting to two pictures: one is the first night that we spent on the Greenland shore after the depar ture of the Kite, when, in a little tent on the rocks - a tent which the furious wind threatened every moment to carry away bodily - she watched by my side as I lay a helpless cripple with a broken leg, our small party the only human beings on that shore, and the little Kite, from which we had landed, drifted far out among the ice by the storm, and invisible through the rain. Long afterward she told me that every unwonted sound of the wind set her heart beating with the thoughts of some hungry bear roaming along the shore and attracted by the unusual sight of the tent; yet she never gave a sign at the time of her fears, lest it should disturb me.
