Another strange find in the Scoresby collection... a blank map? This chart appears to have been prepared for Elisha Kent Kane's Second Grinnell Expedition (1853-1855), which searched for Franklin's lost expedition. The chart was never filled in, perhaps due to Scoresby and Kane's deaths in 1857.

A note on the exterior of the map reading "Dr Kane's Discoveries"

A note on the exterior mentioning Smith Sound, Kane Basin and Kennedy Channel.

Concerned by how this is largely being framed as “Antarctica makes you crazy!” while burying the lede: the alleged incident was sexual assault.

Today in dissertation writing: chasing a two-sentence footnote digression all the way back to the 4th century BC and cracking open Strabo + Polybius for the first time in years. I am a historian of modern Britain (allegedly).
