Description ▲
Explorer Henry Hudson was famous in life and death. Between 1607 and 1611, he led four voyages to find a passage from Europe to the Orient. Although he failed to reach Asia by water, he did discover the Hudson River, Hudson Bay, and Hudson Strait. He traveled in dangerous seas. His crew suffered from freezing conditions. Ice struck his sailing vessels. On his final voyage, his men rebelled. They forced Hudson, his son John, and seven other crewmembers aboard a small boat and set them adrift to die. The crew returned to its homeport without its captain. They were not found guilty of mutiny.
