Illustrated with photographs and maps. In 1926 three Englishmen set off to explore the remote wilderness of Canada, the Barren Lands. One of them, Jack Hornby, was already a legendary figure. On his last trip home he had met up with a young cousin, Edgar Christian. Harold Adlard made the third man of the party. He too hoped to make his name and his fortune in the wilderness. Based on Edgar Christian's journal and the writings of Critchell-Bullock, 'Cold Burial' is a haunting and compelling story of obsession, folly and fortitude.
