To me, my story does not seem so very extraordinary, for I soon came to accept the risks and trials as part of the day's work. To those who do not know the Arctic, I hope it will be interesting and to those who, like myself, hunted in those northern seas, I simply wish that they may share with me the pleasure of looking back to the days, the ships and the customs that now, alas, are gone.
