LIX and LXI, respectively, in "The Publications of the Champlain Society" series. This two-volume set contains a nearly-complete transcription of the extant journals kept by John Franklin (1786-1847), a British Royal Navy officer and explorer, during the Coppermine Expedition he led from 1819-1822 as well as the Mackenzie Expedition he led from 1825-1827. Also included are some letters by Franklin and others that relate to each expedition. The Coppermine Expedition was organized by the British Royal Navy for the purpose of surveying the northern coast of Canada and discovering the Northwest Passage. Franklin traveled eastward from Hudson Bay and the mouth of the Coppermine River and made it as far as Point Turnagain on Kent Peninsula. The Coppermine Expedition was largely considered a disaster. It was beset by poor planning and scant resources amid the ongoing rivalry between the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) and North West Company. HBC also made false promises that Franklin and his team would receive help from third parties along the way. Franklin and several of the men did reach the northern coast, but their survey was not as extensive as originally planned. Their most pressing issue at hand was survival as supplies dwindled and little or no help came. Eleven of the twenty men under Franklin's leadership perished from various causes including hypothermia, scurvy, starvation, and murder. Chief Akaitcho of the Yellowknives (Copper Dene) Nation and other Yellowknives members found Franklin and the survivors and helped nurse them back to health. Despite criticisms about his performance, Franklin was received as hero by the general public for facing the treacherous circumstances of the expedition. Fortunately, the Mackenzie Expedition had a different outcome and was largely considered a success. Franklin, learning from his first Arctic expedition, relied mostly on the Royal Navy instead of outside parties whose help during the Coppermine Expedition was either nonexistent or unreliable. HBC and North West Co. had also merged so Franklin could be better supplied. The principal reason for the Mackenzie expedition was surveying the Northwest Coast of Canada. Franklin and his team managed to map about half of the northern coastline for Britain. Their route took them between the mouths of the Mackenzie and Coppermine Rivers and on a westward trajectory along the coast to the Bering Strait.
