Unknown Shore: The Lost History of England's Arctic Colony by Robert Ruby

Unknown Shore: The Lost History of England's Arctic Colony by Robert Ruby is a popular history of British Arctic expiration. There are three narrative threads. The first is a discussion of Martin Frobisher's three voyages. The second is the story of a 19th-century American journalists attempt to find the Franklin expedition. The third is the authors own journey to the Arctic. There actually isn't all that much here about the supposed colony and considering they didn't try to inhabit it when the ships were not present I think it's a little bit of a stretch to call it a colony. The author has obviously done quite a bit of research in UK archives.
