On 4to sheet and small piece of paper. 1 vols. 4to and 2 1/4 x 4 1/2 inches. Halpern wrote to Bartlett regarding a previous invitation to visit the "Morrissey" saying that he is ready to go and when is Bartlett ready for him. Bartlett replied that he could come the following Saturday. Bartlett, the noted Newfoundland-born Arctic explorer, who was with the Peary expedition in 1897-89, commanded the "Roosevelt" on its Arctic voyage in 1905 to 1909. He served on the Canadian government Arctic expeditions in 1913 and 1914 and several subsequently to Greenland, Alaska, the Arctic Ocean, Siberia and Labrador. The "Morrissey" was his schooner, now called "Ernestina" and now the official vessel of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Built in Essex, Massachusetts, she reached within 600 miles of the North Pole with Bartlett to whom she was sold in 1914. The second note reminds the doctor to put a 5 cent stamp on the letter. Provenance: From the collection of Seymour Halpern, who was a Representative from New York. From 1931 to 1933 he was a reporter and feature writer for the Long Island Daily Press and the Chicago Herald Examiner The first in the lower corner of an autograph letter sent to Bartlett from Seymour Halpern, the second addressed to Doctor Knut Rasmussen. corners clipped on the second, folds and a few creases on first else very good On 4to sheet and small piece of paper. 1 vols. 4to and 2 1/4 x 4 1/2 inches.

First Edition
Arctic, Exploration (illustrator). Strikingly bound in finely woven pictorial blue cloth bordered and lettered in bright gold with arctic motifs in white, outlined in gold. Spine gilt faded but readable. Very clean and tight throughout; printed on white, heavy stock with 26 full-page photographic plates, including the frontispiece, printed on one side. With a colorful, discrete bookplate featuring a sailing ship; and some paper residue from a bookplate carelessly removed from the front paste-down. This second edition, published in April of 1919 is uncommonly scarce. The first edition, printed in November, 1916 is apparently unobtainable. A very handsome and collectible copy of this classic tale of Arctic danger, intrigue, and the ill-fated voyage of the Karluk. The last voyage of theKarluk, flagship of theCanadian Arctic Expedition of 1913 16, ended with the loss of the ship in the Arctic seas, and the subsequent deaths of nearly half her complement of 25. In August 1913, Karluk, a brigantine formerly used as a whaler, became trapped in the ice while sailing to a rendezvous point at Herschel Island. After a long drift across the Beaufort and Chukchi seas, in January 1914 the ship was crushed and sunk. In the ensuing months, the crew and expedition staff struggled to survive, first on the ice and later on the shores of Wrangel Island. In all, eleven men died before rescue.The Canadian Arctic Expedition was organised under the leadership of Canadian anthropologist Vilhjalmur Stefansson, and had both scientific and geographic purposes. Shortly after Karluk was trapped, Stefansson and a small party left the ship, stating that they intended to hunt for caribou. However, the ice carried Karluk westwards, far from the hunting party who found it impossible to return to the ship. Stefansson reached land and then devoted himself to the expedition's scientific objectives, leaving the crew and staff on board the ship under the charge of its captain, Robert Bartlett. After the sinking, Bartlett organised a march across the ice to Wrangel Island, 80 miles (130km) away.[n 1] Conditions were difficult and dangerous; two four-man parties were lost before the island was reached.From the island, Bartlett and an Inuk companion set out across the frozen sea for the Siberian coast, in search of help. Assisted by local populations, the pair eventually reached Alaska, but sea ice conditions prevented any immediate rescue mission. On Wrangel Island, the stranded party survived by hunting game, but were short of food and troubled by internal dissent. Before their eventual rescue in September 1914, three more of the party had died, two of illness and one in violent circumstances.Historians have divided views on Stefansson's decision to leave the ship. Some of the voyage's survivors were critical of his seeming indifference to their ordeal and the loss of their comrades. He escaped official censure, and was publicly honoured for his later work on the expedition despite the Canadian government's reservations about its overall management. Although Bartlett was criticised by an admiralty commission for taking Karluk into the ice, he was hailed as a hero by the public and by his former Karluk shipmates.
