8vo; Signed by Author. 0002000547.
A handsome First Edition/First Printing in As New condition, SIGNED by author Ken McGoogan directly on the title page; Author Ken McGoogan establishes that Canadian explorer John Rae found the final navigable link in the Northwest Passage and also determined the fate of the earlier 1845 attempt by Sir John Franklin's expedition. Rae's report of cannibalism by Franklin's crew enraged Franklin's wealthy widow, Lady Jane, who began a smear campaign against him, even enlisting the help of Charles Dickens.
