The naval officer Frederick William Beechey (1796-1856) served under John Franklin during the 1818 British expedition to the Arctic. The two ships, Dorothea and Trent, were caught in ice and failed to find a route beyond Spitsbergen. This work, published in 1843, remains the principal account of the expedition.

This two-volume work, published in 1831, describes an expedition in support of the North-West Passage exploration effort. Volume 1 focuses on the Pacific islands, including Pitcairn, where the author met the last Bounty mutineer, and documents the explorers' first summer in the Bering Strait and their encounters with the Inuit.
