Ten of the Best Adventures in Frozen Landscapes

Professor of Latin David West (University of Newcastle Upon Tyne)

Ten exciting stories feature famous explorers and their struggles to survive in frigid temperatures during dangerous polar expeditions. Stories include: the last expedition of John Franklin, Salomon August Andre’s attempt to reach the North Pole by hydrogen balloon, Ernest Shackletons journey to rescue his ice-locked crew, Riiser-Larsen and Amundsens crash in the Arctic, and the crash of Umberto Nobiles airship Italia. Feature boxes and maps add additional details and help readers better understand the explorer’s journey and the time period in which the expedition took place.
