Synopsis
AN INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER * "CHILLING ... WILL KEEP YOU UP AT NIGHT TURNING PAGES."-- The Chicago Tribune This "remarkable piece of forensic deduction" (MARGARET ATWOOD) "captures the excitement and peril of the explorers' harrowing journey" aboard the HMS Erebus, and offers "a compelling explanation of what might have transpired over their final weeks and days (including, in a final act of desperation, cannibalism). It's a serious historical work, but also a riveting account of a truly extraordinary expedition." ( THE NEW YORK TIMES ) In 1845, Sir John Franklin and his men set out to "penetrate the icy fastness of the north, and to circumnavigate America." And then they disappeared. The truth about what happened to Franklin's ill-fated Arctic expedition was shrouded in mystery for more than a century. Then, in 1984, Owen Beattie and his team exhumed two crew members from a burial site in the North for forensic evidence, to shocking results. But the most startling discovery didn't come until 2014, when a team commissioned by the Canadian government uncovered Erebus, the lost ship. Frozen in Time is a riveting deep dive into one of the most famous shipwrecks of all time, and the team of brilliant scientists that unleashed its secrets from the ice. It offers a thrilling account of Franklin's doomed Arctic expedition, and the scientific investigation that spurred the decades-long hunt for its recovery-- now with a new afterword on the discovery of its lost ships: Erebus and Terror., The international bestseller revealing the fate of the doomed Franklin Expedition--now with a new afterword on the discovery of Erebus and Terror, and a new section of color photos. In 1845, Sir John Franklin and his men set out to "penetrate the icy vastness of the north, and to circumnavigate America." And then they disappeared.

It offers a thrilling account of Franklin's doomed Arctic expedition, and the scientific investigation that spurred the decades-long hunt for its recovery-- now with a new afterword on the discovery of its lost ships: Erebus and Terror., Frozen in Time tells the dramatic story of how Sir John Franklin's elite naval forces came within sight of the Northwest Passage, only to succumb to unimaginable horrors. A gripping tale of cannibalism, bureaucratic hubris, great courage, and groundbreaking science, it shows how the excavation of three sailors from the 1845 Franklin expedition, buried for 138 years on the Arctic headland of Beechey Island, shed new light on one of the world's great maritime mysteries-and, in this new edition, how the 2014 and 2016 discoveries of the lost ships Erebus and Tenor will help solve it.

However the seller very quickly righted everything, communicating with me the entire time. The other two items were in perfect condition, arrived on time, and were exactly as described. They were very quick to fix what was wrong, and were very polite about the entire thing. I will be buying from them again in the future.The Liar - hardcover, Nora Roberts, 0399170863 (#284903186562)
