New World Adventure



Well the closest Henry Carey ever got to my location is indirectly as he was a sponsor of Martin Frobisher expedition, mind you he wasn't exactly the most prestigieous or the main backer or main the one, but he is indeed listed among those that financed the expedition to find the north-west passage. I doubt he was particularly enthusiast on the matter as list tend to show that he still hasn't paid for his part (source), though he hardly was the only in the matter and his participation being minimal (source), too bad the guy was 500 years or so too early before the passage was cleared by global warming. I'm pretty sure Henry wouldn't have gotten there to save his life considering how cold it was.
