Naval officer Sherard Osborn (1822-75) commanded the steam vessel Pioneer during Horatio Thomas Austin's 1850-1 mission in search of the missing Franklin expedition. Osborn's compelling eyewitness account, published in 1852, describes the first (and successful) trial of steam in the punishing Arctic conditions.
