The Frozen North, written by Richard Mayde and first published in 1876, is a richly illustrated non-fiction account of the Arctic regions. This work explores the geographical features, wildlife, and indigenous peoples of the Arctic, including the Esquimaux and Lapps. Mayde vividly describes the harsh landscapes, extreme weather conditions, and the resilient lifestyles of the Arctic inhabitants, providing both a geographical exploration and an anthropological study of this formidable environment.
