A short but fascinating look into the Franklin expedition and the 170 year hunt to find the ships, and discover what happened to the 129 souls of HMS Erebus and HMS Terror. The epilogue (in the KU copy that I read) is dated August 2026, which I presume should be 2025, but the book does bring us right up to date with the current, ongoing scientific research. The story of the Franklin expedition is one of impressive endurance, resilience and courage, ultimately brought down by pride, hubris and systemic failure.
