Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book Description
"Embark on an extraordinary Arctic expedition with Sir John Franklin in 'Narrative of a Journey to the Shores of the Polar Sea, in the Years 1819-20-21-22: Volume 2.' Published in the early 19th century, this gripping narrative details Franklin's harrowing journey through the uncharted territories in search of the elusive Northwest Passage. In Volume 2, Franklin continues to recount the challenges faced by his expedition, from navigating treacherous waters to enduring harsh Arctic conditions. Through vivid prose, readers are transported to the frigid landscapes and icy expanses, gaining insight into the explorers' resilience and the profound difficulties encountered during their quest. More than a travelogue, Franklin's narrative serves as a historical record of one of the earliest attempts to navigate the Arctic waters. Join him on this literary expedition where each page unveils a new chapter of Arctic exploration, making it an essential read for those captivated by tales of polar expeditions and the indomitable human spirit."

Book Description
This is the second volume of the complete edition of The Correspondence of Charles Darwin. For the first time full authoritative texts of Darwin's letters are available, edited according to modern textual editorial principles and practice. The letters in this volume were written during the seven years following Darwin's return to England from the Beagle voyage. It was a period of extraordinary activity and productivity in which he became recognised as a naturalist of outstanding ability, as an author and editor, and as a professional man with official responsibilities in several scientific organisations. During these years he published two books and fifteen papers and also organised and superintended the publication of the Zoology of the Voyage of HMS Beagle, for which he described the locations of the fossils and the habitats and behaviour of the living species he had collected. Busy as he was with scientific activities, Darwin found time to re-establish family ties and friendships, and to make new friends among the naturalists with whom his work brought him into close contact. In November 1838, two years after his return Darwin became engaged to his cousin, Emma Wedgwood, whom he subsequently married.
