Un hivernage dans les glaces is the English title of Jules Verne's 1855 short adventure tale. The story was initially published in the periodical Musée des Familles in April or May 1855. Pierre-Jules Hetzel later reproduced it as part of the Voyages Extraordinary series in the collection Doctor Ox (1874). In 1874, three English versions (George Makepeace Towle's "A Winter amid the Ice," Abby L. Alger's "A Winter Among the Ice-Fields," and Stephen William White's "A Winter's Sojourn in the Ice") were released. The book tells the tale of Jean Cornbutte, who chooses to rebuild the ship and sail to the north in search of his son Louis and other crew members after they fail to return from sea. His son's fiancée, Marie, and the ship's first officer, André Vasling, who would be his son's rival for her affections, are traveling with him. Jules Verne published a brief tale of adventure called A Winter Amid The Ice in 1855. Given that this is a Jules Verne tale, Jean makes the decision to replenish the ship and set off on a quest to discover what happened to his son. Andre also has hidden agendas, one of which is to wed Marie himself.
