In 1818 the diplomat Sir John Barrow (1764–1848) published this history of Arctic exploration from the Viking period to the early nineteenth century. Quoting from eye-witness accounts, Barrow describes the landscape, fauna and climate, the explorers' battle against extreme cold, disease and starvation, and their encounters with the Inuit.
