No other vessel-sail or power driven-had ever passed through the
dangerous straits of the Northwest Passage and completed a voyage
round the world before David Scott Cowper's daring journey in the
converted RNLI life boat Mabel E. Holland. David Scott Cowper
vividly describes his four year circumnavigation by way of the
Northwest Passage, detailing his recovery of a boat sunk by Arctic
ice and the adventure and hardship of a grueling non-stop voyage
across the Pacific in a small power boat. In the annals of
small-boat voyages, this one stands out by any measure; not only
because of the enormous difficulties and the tenacity with which
they were overcome, but because of the extraordinary fascination
and unspoilt beauty of the Arctic. The book is enhanced by Scott
Cowper's photographs taken during the journey.
