"Ice Ghosts" combines the epic tale of the lost Franklin Expedition of 1845—where two ships and the crew of 129 men disappeared in the Arctic ice—with the incredible discovery of the flagship wreck in 2014. Paul Watson, who was on the icebreaker that led the exploratory mission, tells a gripping story of historical adventure: Sir John Franklin and the crew of HMS Erebus and Terror set out in search of the mythical Northwest Passage, the dangers they faced, and the reasons they were forced to abandon the ship hundreds of miles from the nearest settlement, as well as the decades of searches that unveiled rumors of cannibalism and some scattered documents and bones—until a combination of Inuit tradition and the latest science led to a discovery that would go down in history.
