The diplomat Sir John Barrow (1764–1848) published this popular account of twelve recent Arctic expeditions in 1846. Drawing on eye-witness reports, Barrow describes the Arctic landscape, fauna and climate, the explorers' diet and health, and their encounters with 'Esquimaux', providing fascinating insights into the experiences of nineteenth-century polar explorers.
