Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book details the voyage of the United States Steamer Enterprise during its circumnavigation of the globe from 1883 to 1886. During the course of this voyage, the Enterprise conducted a series of deep-sea soundings, contributing significantly to our understanding of the ocean floor. The author, along with fellow officers Lieutenants Geo. A. Norris and Adolph Marix, and Chief Engineer H. D. McEwan, played a key role in these soundings, which measured depths ranging from 1,000 to nearly 30,000 feet. The book provides a detailed account of the scientific methods employed and the challenges faced by the crew in conducting these groundbreaking measurements. In addition to its scientific contributions, the book offers a fascinating narrative of the Enterprise's journey, which included visits to South Africa, Madagascar, the Comoro Islands, Zanzibar, the Seychelles, and the Straits of Sunda. The author's keen eye for detail and lively writing style bring the sights, sounds, and experiences of this extraordinary voyage to life.
