Sample Book Insights:
#1 The Arctic weather was even worse that fall of 1855. The whaleship George Henry was navigating its way through the Davis Strait when it was struck by floating packs of ice. The temperature had continued to fall, threatening to turn the ice into one impenetrable mass.
#2 The crew of the George Henry found a ship named the HMS Resolute, with no crew on board. They were shocked to find a deathlike silence and a dread repose. They went below and found a cabin filled with books and personal items, as if the occupants had just stepped out.
#3 As the second decade of the nineteenth century began, England was about to embark on a new age of discovery motivated in large part by the desire to advance scientific discovery.
#4 The search for a Northwest Passage was a huge motivation for exploration in the nineteenth century. It was a route that would allow ships to travel directly from the Atlantic to the Pacific by sailing through the Arctic.
