Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Three Years of Arctic Service, Vol. 1: An Account of the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition of 1881-84 and the Attainment of the Farthest North
These volumes appear in response to the demands of the general public for a popular account of the Lady Franklin Bay Expedition; and in their preparation I have spared neither health nor strength since the ren dition of my official narrative to the War Department has left me free. The Secretary of War kindly granted me authority to incorporate in this work such official journals, maps, etc., as I might desire.
