Lost In The Arctic: Being The Story Of The Alabama Expedition, 1909-1912 is a non-fiction book written by Ejnar Mikkelsen and published in 1913. The book tells the story of the Alabama Expedition, which was led by Mikkelsen himself, and their attempt to explore the Arctic regions of Greenland. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which chronicles a different aspect of the expedition. Mikkelsen describes the challenges faced by the team as they navigated through the harsh and unforgiving Arctic terrain, battling extreme weather conditions, hunger, and illness. He also provides insights into the local Inuit communities and their way of life, as well as the natural environment and wildlife of the Arctic.Throughout the book, Mikkelsen provides a detailed account of the expedition’s progress, including their discoveries, setbacks, and triumphs. He also reflects on the personal and emotional toll that the journey took on him and his team, as they struggled to survive in one of the most inhospitable regions on earth.Overall, Lost In The Arctic is a gripping and insightful account of a remarkable expedition, written by one of its key participants. It offers a fascinating glimpse into the challenges and rewards of Arctic exploration, and is a must-read for anyone interested in adventure, history, or the natural world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
