An artist sails north into the ice with harpoon crews and polar bears for company. W. G. Burn Murdoch records the hard, cold trade of whaling and the hunts along the Arctic edge, sketching men, ships, and the vast frozen sea. A vivid firsthand voyage into a vanished way of life. Ship out to the far north with a sharp-eyed adventurer.

Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
