This work presents IL / ropular form the a.i-
tire history Of the Poll .is Exploring Expe4i-
ton, rot only CIV ing the valuable results ac-
complshed by it, but going deep enough into
causes to trace out the weak points in the or
gspization OF the party. Notwithstanding IFS
unfortunate features, tie Polaris Expedition
achieved very important geographical AMI sci
entific results, and its success uuder the draw
backs indicated, suggests what night be accom-
plished by united and properly disciplined
party OF Arctic explorers. In addition to the
narrative portion, the Introductory chapter
contains general resume OF Arctic expert
ences; and in 'the chronology is found epto
mized all the principal events of interest relat
ing to previous and coptemr orary Polar expe
ditions, adding gseatly to the value of the work
