Excerpt from The Arctic Regions and the Northern Whale-Fishery The following pages contain, in an abridged and somewhat modified form, the substance of the first volume of captain (now the rev. Dr.) Scoresby's work on the Arctic Regions and the Whale - fishery, Edinburgh, 1820 with the omission of the third chapter on the Hydro graphical Survey of the Greenland Sea.
