Here's some bibliographical info:

Jules Verne. _An Antarctic Mystery_. Reprint of the first American edition, trans. Mrs. Cashel Hoey (Philadelphia: Lippincott, 1899), introduction by David G. Hartwell. Boston: Gregg Press, 1975. This is the same translation as the one first published in Great Britain by Sampson Low (1898). Translation of Jules Verne, _Le Sphinx des glaces_ (Paris: Hetzel, 1897).

Not including the periodical imprints of this story, there appear to be three different translations published in book format:
1. the original Hoey translation from Sampson Low in 1898 (reprinted by Lippincott the following year in the US).
2. a revised translation published as _The Sphinx of Ice, or An Antarctic Mystery_, ed. Charles F. Horne, in volume 14 of the Parke edition (New York, 1911).
3. the "combo" Poe/Verne published as _The Mystery of Arthur Gordon Pym by Edgar Allan Poe and Jules Verne_, ed. Basil Ashmore (London: Arco and Westport, CT: Associated, 1961).
