William Edward Parry (1790–1855) led three expeditions in search of the North-West Passage. This 1824 publication describes the second (1821–3), which included two winters on the ice. It documents Parry's leadership style, the practicalities of early Arctic exploration, and the language and customs of the local 'Esquimaux'.
