Beschreibung
'PASSAGE' is the shocking account of the tragic John Franklin Expedition, brilliantly told in a new novel by Angus Wardlaw, descendant of Captain Francis Crozier who commanded the HMS Terror, sister ship to the HMS Erebus.
Wardlaw dramatically unveils the spine-tingling true story of this ambitious but ultimately fated expedition, that ended in death and cannibalism.
Meticulously researched, drawing on all that is known about the fate of this ambitious expedition, 'PASSAGE' relates the history, horror and extreme challenges to human fortitude faced by the crews of the two ships; familiar to many from 'The Terror' - the chilling Ridley Scott produced TV [...] 19th May 1845 the Royal Navy launches its most technologically advanced Arctic expedition ever in the hope of finding the fabled Northwest Passage: a direct trade route to the Far East that could bring untold wealth to the British [...], just as the expedition is on the brink of astonishing success, nature cruelly threatens to crush the ships and stretch the crews of Erebus and Terror to the limits of human endurance.
With the temperature plummeting, the body count rising and little hope of rescue, their troubled leader has no option but to abandon ships with his freezing, sick and starving men and begin a brutal 500-mile death march across the High Arctic.
This is the true, epic story of the brotherhood and heroism of 129 souls who must pass through the very darkest of places in their struggle to survive as told by the great-great-great-great nephew of Francis Crozier, captain of HMS Terror.
