About this product

Product Information

When supplies ran out, the return trek across the Barrens became one of the most tragic incidents in the history of Arctic exploration. Robert Hood was one of those who perished on this trip. Weakened by starvation, he was shot through the head by a member of the party turned cannibal. A highly sensitive and educated man with a painter's eye for detail, Hood was an astute observer of the political and social ways of the North. The journal reveals his awareness, unusual in his time, of the adverse effects on Native peoples and their environment of the coming of the Europeans. Hood's paintings capture the beauty as well as the harshness of the North. His bird paintings in particular are of special artistic and historical interest.

Perfect eBay seller! The item was quickly dispatched (with other items) but was unfortunately faulty on delivery. Response received very quickly and item was immediately refunded. Other items in the delivery were as advertised. This is exactly the excellent customer service that will bring me back here to buy more items with confidence. Superb seller and highly recommended!
