eng:Main Page

This web is mainly in the Czech language. It is a strange Slavic language, spoken in the Czech Republic. :-)

There are many other websites concerning the last Franklin expedition in English. You can find links to a lot of them below .

There is also online map of the Franklin expedition created by the author of this website. Very rarely I publish texts in English on Blogspot.

Any comments, questions and suggestions in English (or Czech, of course) are welcomed at info@franklinova-expedice.cz. Bug reports (dysfunctional links, grammar mistakes, etc.), and proposals for new links are especially appreciated.

Useful links

There are few links: much more to come in the near future.
