OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. 
Saturday Review. 
“ Straightforward and clear in style, securing our confidence by its 
unaffected simplicity and good sense.” 
Standard. 
“A charming book, remarkably well written and well illustrated.” 
Guardian. 
“Not only a lively narrative, well illustrated, of an Arctic voyage, 
it is also a very complete manual of Polar exploration.” 
Westminster Review. 
“ His descriptions of exploration, as well as of whale and seal hunt¬ 
ing in Northern Seas, are really enticing. Captain Wells has found 
the art of seizing upon the picturesque parts of ancient travels, and 
recounts them with an ardour and a pointedness which greatly en¬ 
hance the value of his work.”
