The search for the North West Passage, the fabled northern route to the Orient, took many lives, including the entire crews of Franklin's Erebus and Terror. This book tells the story of Franklin and his ill-fated expedition as well as the story of the involvement of the Royal Navy in Polar exploration until Scott's Antarctic expedition of 1912.
