Excerpt from Farthest North: Or, the Life and Explorations of Lieutenant James Booth Lockwood, of the Greely Arctic Expedition The few pages devoted to the early life can not be expected to especially interest the general public, but will gratify Lieutenant Lockwood's friends. They are here produced to give them permanency, and to show his sterling character. N o attempt is here made to give a history of the Expedition, and only so much of Lockwood's journal is produced as shows his connection therewith. The voyage to Lady Franklin Bay is given more in detail. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
