In 1936 the least-known area of Canada was the west coast of Baffin Island, part of which was still unexplored. Graham Rowley went to the Arctic as the archaeologist of a small British expedition to map and investigate this uncharted area. Cold Comfort is a personal account of his experiences in the North before World War II and his remembrances of a bygone age in arctic history.
