On the second of his two voyages to patrol British fisheries in North America, Edward Chappell (1792-1861) recorded his observations in this illustrated journal, published in 1817. Though somewhat superficial, his descriptions of Inuit life, homes and customs revised previous accounts and provided new information to English readers.
