Russell Potter has written extensively about the history of Arctic exploration, and appeared in Arctic Passage, an episode of PBS's acclaimed NOVA series, in 2006. His latest book, Finding Franklin: The Untold Story of a 165-Year Search, details the more than fifty modern search expeditions that have sought to solve the disappearance of Sir John Franklin's ill-fated 1845 Arctic expedition. Illustrated with numerous engravings, photographs and maps, Finding Franklin tells the tale of the dedicated, often obsessive, men and women who searched for him, including the crucial role that Inuit oral accounts played in these searches, giving historical and cultural context to the contemporary debates over the significance of Franklin’s achievement. Finding Franklin reveals the stories behind the myth and illuminates a remarkable decades-long process of discovery.
