MARC recordFranklin: the dark myths / E.C. Coleman.
| Title: | Franklin: the dark myths / E.C. Coleman. |
| Author(s): | Coleman, E. C. |
| Date: | [n.d.] |
| Abstract: | Describes attempts to trace whereabouts of Sir John Franklin's expedition, discussing Inuit accounts and probability of cannibalism. Discounts theory that Franklin was defeated by hostile Inuits concluding that, following Beattie's 1981 scientific investigation into reasons for expedition's failure, most likely cause of death was bad health caused by poor diet, scurvy and lead poisoning from use of canned food. |
