'The ships were called the Terror and the Erebus', 1847, (1905). John Franklin's doomed expedition to find the North-West Passage. The entire crew was lost; their fate remained a mystery until fourteen years later. Illustration from Our Island Story by H E Marshall, published by T C & E C Jack Ltd, (London and Edinburgh, 1905). The book gave a very biased and pro-British view of history.
