i OPU WXh O Q DO PREFACE. FOR nearly four centuries the arctic regions have been an interestingfield for explorers, and public attention has been frequently drawn tothe voyages and travels that have been made in the zones of ice and snow.The fresh interest given to polar study by the story of the Jeannette andthe work of Lieutenant Greely, on Lady Franklin Bay, has led to thepreparation of the present volume. It is especially intended for youthfulreaders, but the author indulges the hope that those of mature years mayfind instruction and amusement in its pages. He has pursued the planwhich met with favor in his previous works, and endeavored to present anarray of facts upon a groundwork of fiction, in the same manner as in The Boy Travellers in the Far East.

The ship and its crew are fictitious, but the scenes of tadventuresoftwoy00knox
