Скачать или смотреть Trapped In Ice: The Doomed USS Jeannette Expedition

The USS Jeannette set out to conquer the Arctic, in 1879,

Funded by a newspaper tycoon and led by naval officer George De Long, 33 men sailed into the ice—chasing the dream of a warm polar sea.

What they found was something else entirely.

Trapped in the Arctic for 21 months, then forced to drag lifeboats across the ice, the crew faced starvation, frostbite, and brutal isolation.

This is the true story of George De Long, George Melville, and the forgotten expedition that changed Arctic exploration forever.

Based on journals, survivor accounts, and modern research.
