The Lost Journal of an Antarctic Explorer

The top half of a skeleton holding tightly onto a wood and leather trunk was floating in the Southern Atlantic Ocean. A tramp steamer in 1932 from Uruguay recovered the trunk and the top half of a skeleton clutching tightly to it. The ship's Captain was a forty-two-year-old struggling American Veteran from World War One.Inside that trunk the Captain and crew found the personal effects of a man some scientific books and a detailed journal wrapped in oil skin. The journal was a record of an Antarctic expedition that occurred in 1856. According to official United States records no expedition to the Antarctic ever occurred on the dates indicated in the journal.This book is an exact copy of that journal which details the expedition's events encounters and findings.
