When Sir John Franklin disappeared into the Arctic in 1845, it was his adventurous wife, Jane Franklin, who kept the search for him alive and, as a result, contributed more to the discovery and mapping of the North than any explorer. A third masterful biography from historian Ken McGoogan, *Lady Franklin’s Revenge* is the richly documented story of a complex, ambitious Victorian—arguably the greatest woman traveller of the 19th century— and the transformation of a failed expedition into a triumphant legend. A *Globe and Mail* Book of the Year, and shortlisted for the Ontario Libraries Evergreen Award, *Lady Franklin’s Revenge* is an exquisitely illustrated epic adventure.
