Meteorological Observations In The Arctic Seas is a book written by Elisha Kent Kane and published in 1859. The book is a detailed account of the meteorological conditions that Kane and his crew encountered during their Arctic expedition in search of the lost Franklin expedition. Kane was a physician and explorer who led two expeditions to the Arctic in the mid-19th century. The book contains detailed observations of the temperature, wind, and weather patterns that Kane and his crew experienced during their time in the Arctic seas. The observations were made using a variety of instruments and techniques, including thermometers, barometers, and hygrometers. In addition to the meteorological observations, the book also includes descriptions of the landscape and wildlife of the Arctic, as well as the challenges and dangers that the crew faced during their expedition. Kane's writing is detailed and scientific, but also contains personal anecdotes and observations that give the reader a sense of what life was like on board the ship during the expedition. Overall, Meteorological Observations In The Arctic Seas is an important historical document that provides valuable information about the meteorological conditions of the Arctic in the mid-19th century, as well as insights into the challenges and adventures of Arctic exploration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
