High Latitude, North Atlantic by John R Bockstoce

Arctic scholar and voyager John R. Bockstoce here recounts 10 passages he made into northern latitudes during the 1990s in his sturdy motor-sailor Belvedere. From Svalbard, north of Norway, to Scotland and the Faroe Islands, Iceland, Greenland and Labardor-as well as a trip through the Northwest Passage with William Simon-Bockstoce and his crews tracked the courses of Norse voyagers, Irish monks, English and Dutch whalers, Inuit hunters, European explorers, and German submariners in this exciting account of human activity and natural phenomena in the frozen North.
Arctic specialist John R. Bockstoce is an independent scholar and the author of many books, monographs, and articles on the history of the Arctic.
