Sabbaths In The Arctic Regions (1850) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781437060720)

""Sabbaths in the Arctic Regions"" is a book written by William Scoresby, a British whaler and Arctic explorer, and published in 1850. The book is a personal account of Scoresby's experiences during his voyages to the Arctic regions, specifically focusing on the religious observances and practices he and his crewmates engaged in while on board their ship. Scoresby describes the challenges of practicing religion in such a harsh and isolated environment, as well as the ways in which his faith sustained him and his fellow sailors throughout their journeys. The book also includes descriptions of the natural wonders and wildlife that Scoresby encountered in the Arctic, as well as his observations on the impact of human activity on the region. Overall, ""Sabbaths in the Arctic Regions"" offers a unique perspective on the intersection of religion, nature, and exploration in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
