"The Voyages and Adventures of Captain Hatteras" by Jules Verne is an adventure novel published in 1866. The story follows British Captain John Hatteras's obsessive quest to reach the North Pole in 1861, convinced the polar sea remains unfrozen.

itself—where Hatteras's relentless ambition leads to a haunting conclusion that changes him forever. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
