Andree's Diary On Polar Drift And Sealing Prospects
Andree notes foraging for meat and blubber, seals and birds seen intermittently as bears vanish. He mentions drift southward at about 12 mph since December 12, hopes absently to ease supply and cold, and that companions endure with humor modestly. He records foot injury recovery, landing nets for plankton, and plans to push farther south to improve nourishment and warmth.
