Le pays des fourrures

by Jules Verne

"Le pays des fourrures" by Jules Verne is an adventure novel published in 1873. In 1859, officers of the Hudson's Bay Company venture north of the 70th parallel to establish a fort in the Canadian Arctic for fur trading. During a solar eclipse observation, they discover their settlement sits not on solid ground but on an ice floe that breaks away from the continent, carrying them adrift toward uncertain fate in a frozen wilderness.
