Softcover. Condición: Good. <DIV><i>The Home of the Blizzard </i>is a tale of discovery and adventure in the Antarctic--of pioneering deeds, great courage, heart-stopping rescues, and heroic perseverance. This is Douglas Mawson's first-hand account of his years spent in sub-zero temperatures and gale-force winds. At the heart of the story is Mawson s epic sledge journey in 1912-13 during which his companions Ninnis and Mertz both perished. Told in a laconic but gripping narrative, this is a story that all armchair explorers will cherish. Originally published to great acclaim in 1915, this book has been out of print for many years. <i>The Home of the Blizzard</i> is illustrated with over ninety original photographs depicting the wildlife, the harsh living conditions and the spirit of the explorers. With a specially commissioned foreword by Sir Ranulph Fiennes, the "world's greatest living explorer," this is a book for anyone interested in adventure and the strength of the human spirit.<br></div> Nº de ref. del artículo: SONG0312230729
