Tue basis of this Bibliography is the portion of the Subject Catalogue 
of the Library of the Royal Geographical Society dealing with the 
Antarctic Regions. Many important papers bearing on Antarctic 
exploration are not to be found in the Library, and an attempt has 
been made to render the Bibliography complete by referring to Cha- 
vanne’s ‘ Literature of the Polar Regions’ (No. 386), Baschin’s annual 
‘Bibliotheca Geographica,’ the geographical bibliographies in Peter- 
manns Mitteilungen, and to other works of reference. 
It was necessary to compile the Bibliography rapidly, and hence it 
was impossible to attempt to verify every title by reference to the 
original, or to hunt out a number of papers the existence of which was 
indicated somewhat uncertainly. Thus while we believe that no im- 
portant book or paper dealing with the Antarctic Regions has escaped 
attention, we cannot say positively that all of minor importance are 
included. We believe that there must be narratives of the voyages of 
British and American whalers and sealers hidden away in many for- 
gotten magazines and journals of local societies between the dates 1820 
and 1840, the unearthing of which would cost much time and trouble. 
In making the Bibliography as complete as it is, the compiler is 
indebted to his successor as librarian of the Royal Geographical Society, 
Mr, E, Heawood, and to Herr Otto Baschin, M. Henryk Arctowski, M.
