The Northwest Passage was repeatedly sought for over four
centuries. From the first attempt in the late 15th century to Roald
Amundsen's famous voyage of 1903-1906 where the feat was first
accomplished to expeditions in the late 1940s by the Mounties to
discover an even more northern route, author Alan Day covers all
aspects of the ongoing quest that excited the imagination of the
world. This compendium of explorers, navigators, and expeditions
tackles this broad topic with a convenient, but extensive
cross-referenced dictionary. A chronology traces the long
succession of treks to find the passage, the introduction helps
explain what motivated them, and the bibliography provides a means
for those wishing to discover more information on this exciting
subject.
