Sample Book Insights:
#1 Charles Francis Hall, a solitary figure, had been pacing the corridors in the Capitol all day. He had been preparing for the Arctic for the past ten years, and he was about to leave for the Far North.
#2 Hall’s energetic one-man campaign generated enough interest that he was invited to lecture in the nation’s capital on his Arctic experiences. He did not tell the audience that he was prepared to try for the North Pole on his own if his planned expedition failed to win government backing.
#3 On March 8, 1870, a joint resolution was introduced in the Senate and House to appropriate $100,000 for a voyage of exploration and discovery under the authority and for the benefit of the United States. It authorized the President to provide a naval or other steamer and, if necessary, a supply tender, for a voyage into the Arctic regions under the control of Captain C. F. Hall.
#4 Hayes had nearly cost Hall his first expedition to the Arctic region ten years earlier by stealing the ship’s captain. He had sat with Hall and listened to his plans for that expedition, feigning support while conspiring behind his back.
