Pack your bags-we're going on an incredible trip! Travel with the Great Explorers takes you on some of the most remarkable journeys of exploration. Discover where the explorers went, why they went there, how they got there, and what went right and wrong along the way. Henry Hudson was one of the unluckiest of all explorers. Three times icy seas and harsh weather blocked his attempts to find a sea route to Asia through the Arctic Circle. And after he had explored the eastern coast of North America and been stuck in ice for eight long months, his crew mutinied just as he was about to resume his journey. Cast adrift in an open boat, Hudson was never heard from again.
