The Polar World - A popular description of man and nature in the Arctic and Antarctic regions of the globe

The object of the following pages is to describe the Polar World in its principal natural features, to point out the influence of its long winter-night and fleeting summer on the development of vegetable and animal existence, and finally to picture man waging the battle of life against the dreadful climate of the high latitudes of our globe either as the inhabitant of their gloomy solitudes, or as the bold investigator of their mysteries. The table of contents shows the great variety of interesting subjects embraced within a comparatively narrow compass; and as my constant aim has been to convey solid instruction under an entertaining form, I venture to hope that the public will grant this new work the favorable reception given to my previous writings. G. Hartwig. I have made no alterations in the text of Dr. Hartwigs book beyond changing the orthography of a few geographical and ethnological terms so that they shall conform to the mode of representation usual in our maps and books of travel. For example, I substitute Nova Zembla for Novaya Zemla, and Samoedes for Samojedes. Here and there throughout the work I have added a sentence or a paragraph. The two chapters on Alaska and The Innuits have been supplied by me; and for them Dr. Hartwig is in no way responsible. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
