Описание: American explorer Charles Francis Hall (1821-71) made two voyages to the Arctic to determine the fate of the Sir John Franklin`s missing expedition. Edited after his death and published in 1879, this account of his second attempt, from 1864 to 1869, confirms that the rumours of survivors were unfounded.
