By Joseph René Bellot and Julien Lemer

Book Overview

This book chronicles the perilous voyage of Lieutenant Joseph Ren Bellot, who joined the search for Sir John Franklin's ill-fated expedition to the Arctic in 1851. Bellot kept a daily journal of his experiences on board the government vessel, 'Prince Albert, ' which ice-locked in the Arctic in late August. Despite enduring unimaginable hardships, Bellot remained steadfast in his pursuit of Franklin, and his journal entries provide a vivid account of his unwavering courage and dedication to duty.
