014 - Chapter 13 - In the Arctic Seas

What this episode covers

In 1857, Lady Jane Franklin, the devoted wife of the missing Sir John Franklin, sought answers about her husbands ill-fated expedition to find the Northwest Passage. To uncover the truth, she commissioned Captain Francis McClintock and equipped him with the steam yacht Fox. This gripping account narrates McClintocks two-year journey, starting with a daunting attempt to navigate the treacherous Davis Strait, which led to the Fox becoming trapped in the relentless sea ice off Greenland. As the seasons changed, McClintock persevered, eventually reaching the remote islands of the Canadian Arctic. There, amidst the stark beauty of the frozen landscape, he unearthed the harrowing reality of Franklins fate. Join Patrick Eaton as he brings this captivating tale of adventure, discovery, and tragedy to life.
