About This Item
Article extracted from Proceedings of Royal Geographical Society and bound in card covers. 22 pages in fine condition. I think the first page of the article is a high quality reproduction. Lecture by Greely touches upon his Arctic exploration begun in 1881. He mentions the Franklin rescue efforts. Author also discusses the dangers of Arctic work and his personal experience. "We suffered about as much discomfort as I have suffered in my life in a given amount of time." They were trapped with one month of provisions at the onset of 7-8 months of winter.
