Seven Frozen Sailors

"Seven Frozen Sailors" by George Manville Fenn is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around Captain Cookson, who is engaged by the eccentric Doctor Curley to command a sealing expedition to the Arctic. Their journey quickly transforms into a scientific expedition intended to discover the North Pole, leading to encounters with ghostly stowaways and perilous icebergs. The opening of the book introduces Captain Cookson as he meets Doctor Curley in a lively discussion about the planned voyage, while also comedic elements emerge through the interactions with a motley crew, including the stout doctor and his unexpected nephew. As they prepare for the perilous Arctic journey, several humorous exchanges set the tone for the adventure and develop the character dynamics. The chapter quickly transitions into suspense as a mysterious ghost is reported on board, hinting at the thrilling and possibly supernatural elements to follow. The development of the crew's camaraderie and their preparations lay a foundation for both humor and danger as they embark on their icy quest. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
