"The National Geographic Magazine, Vol. II., No. 3, July, 1890" by Various is a scientific publication written during the late 19th century. This volume encompasses various articles and reports relating to geography, exploration, and natural science, likely highlighting the exploration of then-remote areas and the academic discourse surrounding geographic studies of that time. The opening of this volume features an account of the U.S.S. Thetis's Arctic cruise in the summer and autumn of 1889, documented by Lieutenant Commander Charles H. Stockton. It describes the ship's journey from San Francisco to the Alaskan coast, its engagements with whaling activities, and the efforts of the crew to gather geographical knowledge of the waters and lands they encountered. Stockton emphasizes the importance of understanding geographical conditions for navigation and commerce, while detailing the challenges faced in harsh Arctic weather and the interactions with local native populations and other vessels.
