This amazing high-seas adventure encompasses the search for the Northwest Passage in the early 1800s; a renowned explorer and his crew of 128 men who vanish during an 1845 expedition; 39 incredible, heroic rescue missions; a ghost ship drifting for more than 1,200 miles and a queen's gratitude. Fascinating rare photographs, paintings, engravings and maps illustrate the book throughout. Acclaimed historian, Martin Sandler is a two-time Pulitzer Prize nominee, a winner of seven Emmy[registered] Awards and author of more than 50 books.
