The very best writing on the Antarctic, from James Cook's 18th-century assertion that 'no man will ever venture further than I have done' to Lynne Cox's description of her epic, icy swim in the 21st century. This book contains 32 first-hand accounts of men and women challenging one of the Earth's last true wildernesses.
