| Summary | "Among the Esquimaux; or, Adventures under the Arctic Circle" by Edward S. Ellis is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story follows the adventures of two young friends, Rob Carrol and Fred Warburton, as they embark on a voyage aboard the ship "Nautilus" to the remote Arctic region of York Factory. The narrative explores themes of friendship, courage, and survival in the harsh environment of the Arctic, especially focusing on the challenges the characters face as they encounter icebergs, storms, and wildlife. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the "Nautilus," its captain, and the two main characters, Rob and Fred, who are excited about their journey to York Factory. As the ship sails through icy waters, they first witness the majestic icebergs and learn about the perils that lie ahead. The opening chapters depict their growing camaraderie, the beautiful yet treacherous Arctic landscape, and foreshadow key challenges, including an alarming situation where they end up stranded on an iceberg, setting the stage for their harrowing adventure.
