Collinson’s life of Frobisher, prefixed to his volume, is brief; his authorities, other than those in the body of his book, are Fuller’s _Worthies of England_, and such modern treatises as Campbell’s _Lives of the Admirals_, Barrow’s _Naval Worthies_, Muller’s _History of Doncaster_, etc. S. G. Drake furnished a memoir, with a good engraving of the usual portrait, in _N. E. Hist. and Geneal. Reg._, vol. iii.; and there is a _Life_ by F. Jones, London, 1878. Biddle, in his _Cabot_, chap. 12, epitomizes the voyages, and they can be cursorily followed in Fox Bourne’s _English Seamen_, and Payne’s _Elizabethan Seamen_. Commander Becher, in his paper in the _Journal_ of the Royal Geographical Society, xii. 1, gives a useful map of the Straits, a part of which is reproduced in the accompanying cut. In the same volume of the _Journal_ its editor enumerates the various manuscript sources, most of which have been printed, and have been referred to above. [Illustration: FROBISHER’S STRAIT.] =C.= HUDSON’S VOYAGES.—The sources of our information on this navigator’s four voyages to the North are these:— _First voyage_ in 1607, under the auspices of the Muscovy Company, to the Northeast. A log-book, in which Hudson may have had a hand, or to which he may have supplied facts; and a few fragments of his own journal. Purchas’s _Pilgrims_, vol. iii.; Asher’s _Henry Hudson_, pp. i and 145. _Second voyage_, 1608, under the auspices of the Muscovy Company, to the Northeast. A log-book by Hudson himself. Purchas’s _Pilgrims_, iii. 574; _N. Y. Hist. Soc. Coll._, i. 81; Asher’s _Hudson_, p. 23. A map by Hondius illustrating the first and second voyage, and given by Asher in fac-simile, was originally published in Pontanus’s _History of Amsterdam_, Latin ed. 1611, and Dutch ed. 1614. _Third voyage_, 1609, under the auspices of the East India Company, to the Northeast, where, foiled by the ice, he turned and sailed to make explorations between the coast of Maine and Delaware Bay. The journal of Juet, his companion. Purchas’s _Pilgrims_, vol. iii.; Asher’s _Hudson_, p. 45. See further in Mr. Fernow’s chapter in Vol. IV. of this History. _Fourth voyage_, 1610, to the Northwest, discovering Hudson’s Strait and Hudson’s Bay. Purchas, _Pilgrims_, vol. iii., got his account from Sir Dudley Digges. He also gives an abstract of Hudson’s journal (Asher, p. 93); a discourse by Pricket, one of the crew, whom Purchas discredits, which is largely an apology for the mutiny which set Hudson adrift in an open boat in the bay now bearing his name (Asher, p. 98); a letter from Iceland, May 30, 1610, perhaps by Hudson himself, and an account of Juet’s trial (Asher, p. 136). Purchas added some new facts in his _Pilgrimage_, reprinted in Asher, p. 139.
