The Glaciers of Alaska That Are Shown on Russian Charts or Mentioned in Older Narratives is a book written by George Davidson in 1904. The book provides a detailed description of the glaciers of Alaska that were documented on Russian charts or mentioned in older narratives. Davidson, who was a geographer and cartographer, was one of the first people to explore and map the Alaskan coastline. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a historical overview of the exploration of Alaska and the documentation of its glaciers. It includes information about the Russian explorers who first mapped the region, as well as the American explorers who followed. The second part of the book provides a detailed description of the glaciers themselves, including their size, location, and characteristics. Davidson’s book is considered an important contribution to the study of Alaskan glaciers and their history. It provides a comprehensive overview of the glaciers that were known at the time, and includes detailed maps and illustrations. The book is still referenced today by researchers and scholars studying the history and geography of Alaska.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
