The Lost Franklin Expedition


Listen Later

Join Kelli as she explains what happened to the Terror and Erebus, the doomed ships of Captain Sir John Franklin's 1945 expedition, where all 134 men perished, most of whom were never found. The bones and artifacts left behind tell a chilling story of how far some men will go to survive - even if all hope is lost.
