In 1850, Richard Collinson captained the HMS Enterprise on a voyage to the Arctic via the Bering Strait in search of the missing Franklin expedition.
Arctic Hell-Ship describes the daily progress of this little-known Arctic expedition and examines the steadily worsening relations between Collinson and his officers.
William Barr has based his research on a wide range of original archival documents, and the book is illustrated with a selection of vivid paintings by the ship assistant surgeon, Edward Adams.
