"The Expedition" by Bea Uusma. A forensic investigation into why three arctic explorers died trying to reach the north pole in a balloon—conducted over 100 years after they died. It's a fascinating story, as well as a great insight into a mind that became obsessed with answering the question "they had enough clothes, food, fuel and ammo to survive. Why did they die?" http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Expedition-Forgotten-Story-Trage... (http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Expedition-Forgotten-Story-Tragedy-ebook/dp/B00KFDR028)
