Description
The Fur Country is a novel by the renowned French author Jules Verne, first published in 1879. The story is set in the Canadian Arctic and follows the adventures of a group of English and American explorers who become stranded on an ice floe while searching for new hunting grounds. The group is led by a young scientist named Clawbonny, who is accompanied by his friend and fellow explorer, Captain Hatteras. They are joined by a diverse group of characters, including a French doctor, a Scottish engineer, and a Native American guide. As they struggle to survive in the harsh Arctic environment, the group encounters a variety of challenges, from dangerous animals to treacherous ice formations. They also discover a hidden valley populated by a tribe of Eskimos, with whom they form a tentative alliance. Throughout the novel, Verne weaves together themes of exploration, survival, and cultural exchange, while also exploring the complex relationship between humans and the natural world. The Fur Country is a thrilling adventure story that offers a vivid portrait of life in the Arctic and a fascinating glimpse into the mind of one of the greatest writers of the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
