The Possibility Of Approaching The North Pole Asserted is a historical book written by Daines Barrington in 1818. The book is a detailed account of the author's belief that it is possible to reach the North Pole through the Arctic Ocean. Barrington argues that the Arctic Ocean is not a solid mass of ice, but rather a series of floating icebergs that can be navigated. He also discusses the potential benefits of reaching the North Pole, including discovering new trade routes and scientific exploration. The book includes detailed descriptions of previous attempts to reach the North Pole, as well as Barrington's own theories and calculations. The Possibility Of Approaching The North Pole Asserted is a fascinating look at the history of Arctic exploration and the scientific theories that have shaped our understanding of the world.With An Appendix.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
