Also, in the Arctic and Antarctic, ice flows are illustrated pictorially to high dramatic effect. Some annotations of exceptional interest including a note on the California Gold Rush (still of great interest in 1850), the cod fisheries on the Grand Banks, and the discovery of Lyakhov's ivory islands (New Siberia).
