Published in 1855, this two-volume account by the captain of H. M. S. Assistance describes his unsuccessful mission to find the missing Arctic expedition led by John Franklin (1786–1847). Volume 2 includes scientific data, a fascinating list of provisions, and details of how four ships were controversially abandoned in the pack-ice.
