Omtale
John Ross (1777–1856) made his second attempt to find a North-West Passage between 1829 and 1833. The expedition surveyed parts of the Canadian Arctic, and discovered the magnetic north pole. Ross published this two-volume work in 1835. Volume 1 summarises previous polar exploration before describing the voyage.
