The search for the North West Passage took many lives, not least the entire crews of Franklin's Erebus and Terror. This book tells the story of not just Franklin and his ill-fated expedition but also tells the story of the involvement of the Royal Navy in Polar exploration until Scott's Antarctic expedition of 1912.
