A lifetime adventure in thirty days

The author's "impressions of Antarctica give a different view from that usually heard. These are not the views of a scientist or a historical specialist but those of one who is an interested observer of a place that is still remote and whose unseen influence has great implications for our climate and the Earth's environmental stability. The story of John's visit will interest anyone who has ever wondered what it is like to visit one of the world's last and perhaps greatest wilderness"--p. [6].
