About the Author
Corey Sandler is the author of more than a hundred books with more
than two million copies in print in more than twenty languages. A for-
mer Gannett and Associated Press newsman, he has appeared on NBC’s
Today show, the Travel Channel, and National Public Radio, and has
been profiled on CNN.
His fascination with the mystery of the life and death of Henry Hudson
took him on a year-long, 25,000-mile journey to England, Norway,
Svalbard, and the North Pole; up New York’s Hudson River to its source,
and deep into Canada’s wilderness of Hudson Bay and James Bay.
Sandler lives on Nantucket island, off the coast of Massachusetts.
