The Jeannette was missing somewhere in the Arctic ice, and Muir went along to look for her. The Corwin's 1881 cruise took him to the Bering Strait, the Siberian coast and Wrangel Island, and Muir gives the ice, the tundra flowers and the villages equal attention, in the only Arctic he ever saw and the last unmapped coast he ever wanted.
