Abstract
THE district treated of in this volume is one to which, at the present moment, the eyes of the astronomical world are turned with lively interest; for within its bleak borders the approaching eclipse of the sun will be observed if the atmospheric conditions be favourable. To astronomers, therefore, this book will be specially interesting and opportune; and not to them alone, but to every traveller who has visited the far north of Norway and sought the midnight sun, and even to the still more numerous class who are compelled to content themselves with acquiring a knowledge of lands and peoples solely from books.
