Neat! Reminds me of the recent findings of the HMS Terror and Erebus, granted due to location things are FAR better preserved. Love that we're finding all these old chunks of history just barely floating beneath the waves.
I read a definitely non fiction account of that called The Terror by Dan Simmons. Crazy stuff went down apparently.
