"First published in English, London: Sampson Low, Marston & Co., 1898" according to OCLC Record #224653212. {{Tr|Mrs. Cashel Hoey}} This translation begins: No doubt the following narrative will be received with entire incredulity, but I think it well that the public should be put in possession of the facts narrated in "An Antarctic Mystery." The public is free to believe them or not, at its good pleasure. No more appropriate scene for the wonderful and terrible adventures which I am about to relate could be imagined than the Desolation Islands, so called, in 1779, by Captain Cook.

Translated from the French by Mrs. Cashel Hoey. First English language edition (in book form). Originally serialized in The Boy's Own Paper, 1898. 64 full-page illustrations. OCLC gives the publisher only as "London: S. Low". But other sources indicate that by 1899 Sampson Low had been merged with Marston. "Translation of Le Sphinx des Glaces."
