Extraordinary Voyages

Purchase of the North Pole

by Jules Verne

The first half of the Hatteras adventures, as the brig Forward sails into the Arctic under a captain the crew have never seen. Mystery, ice and mutiny, in that order. This is another English translation; the library keeps each one, because translators disagree in interesting ways.
