Icebound In The Arctic: The Mystery of Captain Francis Crozier and the Franklin Expedition

Popis:

Captain Francis Crozier was a major figure in 19th century Arctic and Antarctic exploration who led the doomed Franklin Expedition`s battle to survive against the odds. It is a compelling story which refuses to be laid to rest and recent discovery of his lost ships above the Arctic Circle gives it a new urgency. The ships may hold vital clues to how two navy vessels and 129 men disappeared 170 years ago and why Crozier, in command after Franklin`s early death, left the only written clue to the biggest disaster in Polar history.Drawn from historic records and modern revelations, this is the only comprehensive account of Crozier`s extraordinary life. It is a tale of a great explorer, a lost love affair and an enduring mystery. Crozier`s epic story began comfortably in Banbridge, Co Down and involved six gruelling expeditions on three of the 19th century`s great endeavours - navigating the North West Passage, reaching the North Pole and mapping Antarctica. But it ended in disaster.
