Detailed Product Description
US Department of Defence, 1953, 1st editions. 3 volumes, 4478 pp. All three volumes are in their original gray cloth binding, and are in Near Fine condition. Volumes 1 and 2 were in a government library, and have deaccession RSMs, and a spine mark removed, they are VG or maybe Near Fine as they have not seen much use. Volume 3 is also unused and Near Fine, no marks. These three volumes are heavy, so we will request extra postage for Media Mail, Priority Mail or International Mail. This is the standard reference to the Arctic, extensively annotated, and indispensable to anyone concerned with voyages and travels in the region. Volumes 1 and 2 contain 20,003 annotated entries. Volume 3 is a thorough index by sub-topic. These three volumes are the heart of the Arctic Bibliography, which now stretches to 15 volumes. All the books from the heroic age of discovery of the Arctic and the North Pole are in these books. These three volumes contain all the Arctic Polar antiquarian material, listed by author, A-Z. The later 12 volumes (not available) are primarily scientific reports, or concern the activity of the DOD in the Arctic. The fifteen volume set has over 50,000 entries (so I have been told).
