Описание: Little is known about Captain John Frederick Dennett, who published this 1826 compilation of travel narratives. He was clearly familiar with developments in polar exploration, but he emphasises encounters with native peoples. As well as accounts of Arctic expeditions, he devotes a chapter to the activities of Belzoni in Egypt.

Описание: This 1860 account of Sir John Franklin`s life and of the search for him was written by the experienced naval officer Sherard Osborn (several of whose other works have been reissued in this series) to inspire the youth of Britain to follow the great explorer`s example of duty and rectitude.

Описание: This collection of letters by Arctic traveller and surgeon Richard King (1810/11-76), published in 1855, formed part of his campaign to locate and rescue the missing Franklin expedition. Officials ignored him, but King was later vindicated. His efforts constitute an interesting chapter in the history of polar exploration.
