Journals of the First, Second, and Third Voyages V5: For the Discovery of a Northwest Passage from the Atlantic to the Pacific, in 1819-1825 (1828) is a historical book written by William Edward Parry. The book is a detailed account of the three voyages undertaken by Parry and his team in search of a Northwest Passage. The book is divided into three sections, each covering a different voyage. The first voyage took place in 1819, the second in 1821, and the third in 1824. The book includes descriptions of the ships used, the crew members, the weather conditions, and the various obstacles encountered during the voyages. It also includes detailed maps and illustrations of the areas explored. Parry’s journals provide a unique insight into the challenges faced by early explorers and the harsh conditions they had to endure. The book is an important historical document, shedding light on the early exploration of the Arctic region and the search for a Northwest Passage. It is a valuable resource for historians, geographers, and anyone interested in the history of exploration.In Five Volumes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
