About this product

Product Information

Excerpt from Spitsbergen an Account of Exploration, Hunting, the Mineral Riches & Future Potentialities of an Arctic Archipelago After several centuries, during which it has been interest only to explorers, Spitsbergen is again attracting a measure of the public interest which it drew in the years immediately after its discovery. This volume is an attempt to trace the history, exploration and ecomic development of the country and to give some account of the resources which are w attracting attention. It is impossible within the compass of one volume to describe or even to mention all the small expeditions which have visited Spitsbergen, but it is hoped that expedition of importance has been overlooked. No attempt has been made to give more than a sketch of the physical geography, scenery and natural history of the country: to do justice to these a separate volume would be required. For the early history of Spitsbergen I have drawn freely on Sir Martin Conway's researches published in his No Man's Land in 1906, and his volume on Spitsbergen voyages published by the Hakluyt Society in 1902.
