The publications of the Hakluyt Society (founded in 1846) made available edited (and sometimes translated) early accounts of exploration. This 1881 volume contains accounts of Baffin's voyages exploring northern waters. His scientific methods and use of lunar observations to calculate longitude were groundbreaking, and remarkably accurate, as later explorers found.
