We did not all come back. Thus begins this firsthand account of the extraordinary adventure of the Karluk; the flagship of explorer Vilhjalmar Steffanson's Arctic expedition of 1913-1916. When the Karluk became trapped in the ice; Steffanson abandoned Captain Robert A. Bartlett and his crew; nearly half of whom perished before the ordeal ended. Accompanied by one Eskimo; Bartlett made the treacherous journey across the ice to Siberia to find help; and returned with rescuers to collect the survivors.
