Antarctica

Antarctica: Hell of a Place is a jovial account of the author's visit to the frozen continent on a Chilean warship. Through delightful conversations with sailors, scientists, and "straight-backed" veterans, he recounts the triumphs and tragedies of Antarctic explorers, and reflects on Antarctica's haunting history and apocalyptic future. A lively sense of danger always persists in his imagination as the ship battles turbulent waves, howling winds, and biting cold. Beautiful descriptions of the snowy wilderness, the imagery of celestial bliss and fiery damnation dazzle the mind. The reader is transported to the world of lazing seals and scandalous penguins. The beguiling book skilfully conveys the excitement of Antarctic travel. An essay on 'Scientific Diplomacy in Antarctica' is appended. 204 pages with 85 photos and maps.
