Our assignment today is to pair up a fiction and a nonfiction book about the same topic. Since I'm an overachiever (and indecisive), I'm not going to make a book pair. I'm going to make a book throuple. That's right. I'm talking about three books that discuss The Franklin Expedition.
What the heck is The Franklin Expedition? In 1845, a British dude called Captain Sir John Franklin headed to the Canadian Arctic to map the Northwest Passage. His expedition consisted of 129 men and 2 ships. The voyage did not go as planned. The ships got stuck in ice for over a year. While the ships were icebound, 24 men—including Franklin—died.
In April 1848, the remaining 105 men got fed up with the explorer lifestyle and decided to walk across the ice to the Canadian mainland. They were never seen again.
Intense story, right? Here's how three authors used the lost Franklin Expedition as inspiration for their books.
