Yachting in the Arctic Seas - Or, Notes of Five Voyages of Sport and Discovery in the Neighbourhood of Spitzbergen and Novaya Zemlya.

This volume contains a classic account of a sailing experience in the Arctic. It describes a voyage through the Kara Sea and around the Novaya Zemlya archipelago in the Arctic Ocean, which is North of Russia and in the extreme North-east of Europe. An exciting and authentic account of the travails and vicissitudes experienced on the trip, this volume will appeal to those with an interest in sailing, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of allied literature. Many old books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on sailing.
