A short book (because the author entrusted his diary to a shipmate who didn't make it) of an ill-considered voyage along Russia's Arctic Sea passage just before WWI. This was a commercial venture, although there were explorers interested in the area, which was lucky for the author and his shipmate who found the cache of supplies and cabins left behind by an expedition for use by needy mariners. Well worth a few hours of reading.
