    Jan 31 2025
    In this episode of the Bell's Books and Blog podcast, host Jane M. Bell discusses three of history's most perplexing disappearances. Starting in the early 16th century, she explores the enigma surrounding the vanishing of Portuguese explorer Gaspar Corte-Real during his second voyage to Newfoundland, examining theories ranging from shipwreck, indigenous assimilation, secret return to Portugal, to involvement with the Knights Templar. Next, she delves into the chilling mystery of the Franklin Expedition of 1845, focusing on the crew's last recorded message and the possibility of yet undiscovered logs within the recently found shipwrecks. Lastly, she covers the inexplicable disappearance of a French regiment in 1814, considering possibilities including ambush, desertion, environmental peril, or a government cover-up. Throughout, Bell emphasizes the ongoing efforts to unearth new clues and hopefully unravel these age-old conundrums. Jane M.
