About This Book

A group of schoolboys led by Bobby Blake leave their school life to pursue adventure in the frozen north, beginning with campus scrapes and a confrontation over stolen apples. Their voyage escalates into peril: they are shanghaied, face storms and icy seas, fall into depths and are trapped, and contend with hostile pursuers. An Eskimo guide aids them amid blizzards and an isolated hut, leading to discovery of hidden treasure, clever expedients under extreme danger, and narrow escapes. The narrative alternates athletic exploits, suspenseful rescue scenes, and survival challenges before the boys make their way home.
