Extract

Knowledge of this unsuccessful voyage is somewhat fragmentary, and most of the narrative has been pieced together from correspondence which passed between Messrs Enderby Brothers and the Admiralty. Former writers1 believed that John Biscoe, originally nominated to command the expedition, sailed from London in the Hopeful. It has also been supposed that Biscoe resigned his command when the ships reached the Falkland Islands.
