A Selection of Papers on Arctic Geography and Ethnology, reprinted and presented to the Arctic Expedition of 1875, by the President, Council, and Fellows of the Royal Geographical Society

Abstract

WHILE in absolute value the Admiralty Arctic Manual must be regarded as considerably superior to the one before us, still the latter contains a great deal of matter interesting in itself and of high value as adding to our knowledge of the Arctic regions. The Geographical Society deserves thanks for the present it has made to the Arctic Expedition, and we have no doubt that the explorers will find the Selection of real service in enabling them to add to our knowledge in the directions pointed out therein. The editing of the work has been well done by Mr. Clements R. Markham.
