(1 review)
This book details Woodman's reconstruction of the mysterious events surrounding the lost Franklin expedition of 1845. It boldly challenges the narrative of the last 170 years by following up on and restoring the testimony of the only known witnesses to the event - the Inuit and their traditional stories.
