 Terra Incongnita: Travels in Antarctica
by Sara Wheeler"It is the last great journey left to man," Ernest Shackleton wrote in 1914, before setting off for Antarctica on a journey from which he would return two years later having lost his ship and three members of his expedition. Eighty years later, Sara Wheeler followed suit on an adventure sponsored by the U.S. National Science Foundation in Antarctica. With sharp observation and wry humor, Wheeler takes us with her on an unforgettable journey into the last great wilderness. "Every phrase, every observation twitches with life."
