Ice Ghosts by Paul Watson
As the weather turns chilly, now is the perfect time to bundle up and read an interesting book about an arctic exploration. Until the mid-1800s, conventional wisdom held that a northwest passage through the Arctic and the North Pole existed—a quick route to the other side of the world. Many brave men attempted expeditions to discover and map the Arctic region. Unfortunately, they all failed and many lives were lost. Sir John Franklin, of the HMS Terror and HMS Erebus, led one of the last attempts to find this non-existent passage. In his new book, Paul Watson recounts the hardships of the crew, the tough decisions Franklin had to make, and the challenges Franklin’s wife faced as she pleaded with various governments to find her lost husband.
This book's many interesting and informative aspects including the story of Franklin’s exploration, life back home for the worrying families, the life and culture of the Inuit people, and the story of finding the two lost ships, HMS Terror and HMS Erebus, make it an illuminating read.
