The Terror by Dan Simmons.
Amazing telling of the fatal mission to find the North West passage to the North Pole.
The detail of ship life, rigging, clothes, navy life, snow and esquimaux.
Took a while to get into it but one in it is compelling reading.
Simmons research and attention to detail in all his books has been the hook. Some other books disappoint since I started going through his collection.
