Michael Palin | Erebus The Story of a Ship

Price 9.90 € (19.36 лв.)
This product is second hand.

  • Erebus: The Story of a Ship by Michael Palin brings vividly to life one of the most remarkable vessels in the history of polar exploration. Launched in 1826, HMS Erebus evolved from a Royal Navy warship into a pioneering exploration vessel, carrying extraordinary men to some of the most remote places on Earth. Palin follows the ship from Pembroke Dock through James Clark Ross's groundbreaking Antarctic expedition and finally to its fateful voyage under Sir John Franklin in search of the Northwest Passage.

    When Erebus and Terror sailed into the Arctic in 1845, their disappearance became one of the great mysteries of exploration. The wreck of Erebus was finally located in 2014, almost 170 years after Franklin's expedition vanished. Drawing on extensive historical research and his own travels, Palin reconstructs the lives of the explorers, scientists and sailors who served aboard the ship. Rich in adventure, discovery and tragedy, Erebus is both the biography of an extraordinary vessel and a compelling account of nineteenth-century humanity's determination to explore the unknown.
