Produktbeschreibung

In the mid-19th century, two British ships-the Erebus and the Terror-sailed boldly into the Arctic in a final attempt to conquer the elusive Northwest Passage. They never returned. Vanished in the Polar Silence offers a compelling and informative exploration of the Franklin Expedition, a mission that became one of the greatest maritime mysteries in history. This immersive narrative guides readers through the expedition's planning, its early successes, and the devastating chain of events that followed as the crew became trapped in unforgiving ice. Drawing from modern archaeological discoveries, recovered artifacts, Inuit oral histories, and scientific analyses, the book pieces together what likely happened to the 129 men who disappeared into the frozen wilderness. Created for students seeking clarity, structure, and a solid foundation of factual understanding, this work breaks down the complex story into accessible themes-leadership decisions, environmental challenges, survival attempts, and long-delayed discoveries that have only recently come to light. Step into a world of frost, darkness, and determination as you follow a tragedy that continues to fascinate historians, explorers, and scientists alike.
