A transcription of my great-great-great-grandfather's diary, combined with some newspaper articles from later in his life, just came out a couple months ago and sounds like it would be right up your alley. He was an engineer on an arctic expedition that (spoiler alert) went poorly. Rough Weather All Day: http://www.amazon.com/Rough-Weather-All-Day-Expedition/dp/0988701960/ The family recollections of him that I had heard were that he was a mean drunk who spent his later years sitting alone in a dark room drinking, so it was somewhat of a surprise how funny a lot of his writing was. I suppose it was a hell of a trip to try and recover from, though.
