Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I enjoyed this book very much. Well written and engaging, Richard Parry's latest work was a page-turner. I finished all 310 pages in one day. Parry draws upon the 1871 Polaris Expedition inquest transcripts, his experience as a physician, several secondary sources, and scientific analysis to skillfully re-create the story of the doomed ship. Moreover, the author makes an excellent argument as to how the ship's captain met his demise, and who was ultimately responsible.
The only drawback is that the two maps on the front and back covers are somewhat incomplete and vague, missing several locations mentioned by the author.
Overall, a very satisfying read.
