Excerpt from Narrative of a Voyage to the Polar Sea, Vol. 1 of 2: During 1875-6 in H. M. Ships 'Alert' and 'Discovery' In the following narrative I have endeavoured to give a plain and faithful account of the voyage of H.M. ships 'Alert' and 'Discovery' to and from the Polar Sea; together with the results of the explorations which were made along its shores, and over the ice in the direction of the North Pole, by means of sledging. I have written for the information of future Arctic explorers; and also under a feeling of duty to the many, both in this country and abroad, whose earnest good wishes and kind sympathies were with us during our absence. As the expectations which were entertained regarding our reaching the North Pole were not realized, I must, in justice to the gallant men whom I commanded, express my firm conviction that it was due solely to the fact that the North Pole is unattainable by the Smith Sound route.

Excerpt from Narrative of a Voyage to the Polar Sea, Vol. 2 of 2: During 1875-6 in H. M. Ships 'Alert' and 'Discovery' Anxiety About Aldrich's Party - Lieutenant May Sent to Relieve Him Geese and Ducks Arrive - Return of Aldrich - Commencement of Thaw - Extracts From Lieut. Aldrich's Official Report. Commander Markham's men raised serious apprehensions regarding the health of the western division of travellers. They were due at the Joseph Henry depot on the 13th, but as Aldrich's last accounts informed me that the provisions he had saved would enable him to prolong his journey six or seven days, and not expecting that his men would be called upon to undergo much more severe labour than former Arctic travellers had successfully combated, I was not greatly alarmed about him.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
