Elisha Kent participated in two Arctic expeditions and by the time of his death in 1857 was regarded as a true American hero ... Little went right in the second expedition ... there were many notable achievements. The discoveries of Kennedy Channel, the Kane Basin, a record north of 80° 10'N, and the sighting of the Humboldt Glacier were important firsts for Kane. The book became enormously popular (135,000 copies sold within three years), being marketed at trade shows and sold door to door, and often compared to the Bible for wide dissemination on America's bedside reading tables’ (Books on Ice 3.9).
