(Sabin 25624) (Arctic Bibliography 5194) (Field 560) This work is the first issue, with the text ending on p. 768. This work details John Franklin's Coppermine Expedition (1819-1822), formally the British Arctic Land Expedition, an overland venture aimed at charting the northern coast of North America eastward from the mouth of the Coppermine River. Traveling from Hudson Bay through the Canadian interior by canoe and on foot, Franklin reached the Arctic Ocean in July 1821 and surveyed several hundred miles of previously unmapped coastline, but the return journey became catastrophic due to inadequate provisioning and harsh weather. Starvation, exposure, and disease devastated the party, resulting in eleven deaths-including murder and suspected cannibalism, yet it still produced valuable geographic data about the polar region. The first edition, first issue of Narrative Of A Journey To The Shores Of The Polar Sea by Captain John Franklin, published in 1823. (illustrator).

In den WarenkorbZustand: VERY GOOD TO FINE & VERY GOOD. First Edition. The First Edition - First Voyage. 1823 T.P.L. 1248. Sabin 25624. WCB 23:1. Field 560. Graff 1406. Peel 80. Arctic Biblio. 5194. ~~ This famous journey was made to the mouth of the Coppermine River, largely overland. The coast east of the mouth was surveyed. It is one of the…most terrible journeys on record, many of the party dying from cold, hunger, or murder. The distance travelled was some 5,500 miles, and Franklin's narrative at once became a classic of travel literature. John Richardson and George Back, later famous Arctic explorers in their own right, were members of the expedition. The story related here is one of a most devastating and frightful journey of 5500 miles in northern Canada. One of the objects of the expedition was to determine the longitude and latitude of the northern coast of North America. The members of the expedition travelled both overland and by canoe, from Hudson's Bay westward toward Fort Chippewyan, then turned northward to descend the Coppermine River to Coronation Gulf and thence eastward over more than twelve hundred miles into Dease Strait; they finally returned to Fort Enterprise through the Barren Grounds. The expedition was decimated by murder, hunger and cold. ~~ The First Edition - Second Voyage. 1828. A.B. 5198. TPL 1434. Lande 1182. Sabin 25628. This expedition went overland via New York and York (Tor-onto) to the Mackenzie River and to the Arctic Ocean. Franklin here explored the Arctic coast from the MacKenzie delta west almost to Point Barrow. It was planned that he would met the Beechey expedition but they missed each other by 160 miles and a week. Part of the expedition led by Sir John Richardson explored the Arctic coast east to Coppermine River. Together they added 1200 miles of coast line to the map of the Canadian Arctic. 4to, 27cm, The First Edition, First Issue.
