John J. Shillinglaw
In this 1850 account of the history of Arctic exploration, John Shillinglaw both gives a historical perspective and describes the most recent efforts being made to discover the fate of Franklin's 1845 expedition, offering a useful synthesis of the first-hand accounts published in the first half of the nineteenth century.
