Far more complete than competing narratives of Antarctic exploration, this travel adventure documents dozens of voyages, from the earliest days of long-distance sea travel through the rapacious exploitation of seal and whale in the 19th century to the 20th-century expeditions racing to the South Pole. 25 photos. Surveys four centuries and 40 expeditions to Antarctica, recounting the catastrophes and wonders encountered by explorers from Magellan in 1520, to 20th-century scientists. Includes a substantial section discussing the Antarctic's distinctive wildlife, travel resources, and a glossary.
