About this listen

Polar Knights is based on true events.

In 1845, The HMS Erebus and Terror set out for a study of magnetism and the search for the Northwest Passage. Every member of the crew either vanished or was found as a mummy or a skeleton. Where were the 129 men? Search efforts proved confusing. Camp remains stretched hundreds of miles and gave credence to the belief that the men tried to man-haul sledges and walk to safety that was never within reach. Starvation, disease, the elements, and cannibalism chased the men every step of the way.

The native people tried to explain what happened to the men and even claimed that some men survived and lived among them. No one believed them.

In 2016 the world became interested in the story again after the ships were found, sunken far from where expected. (But exactly where the natives claimed they could be found.) Just as the legends claimed, there is a skeleton aboard the Erebus awaiting identification.

Were there truly European women lost with the ships’ crews?

Of what horrors did the men perish?

Did some of the men survive?

Polar Knights follows the terrifying, hopeless events the Franklin expedition’s men faced but also celebrates heroism and those few men who became a rarity in the Arctic: Knights.

Great book with very poor narration

The research and writing for this book is amazing. However, this is probably the worst narration I've listened to. The accents and voice changes for the different characters are just awful. I wish he would have just read this book without any voice changes.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
