Book Description Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: Good. 1st Edition. This copy feels unread however in an attempt to remove a sticker from the jacket it has left a scar. New Zealanders have been at the cutting edge of exploration and research of Antarctica and this vast southern continent has loomed large in our collective psyche as a site of heroic exploration, legendary 'Kiwi' ingenuity and fascinating scientific discoveries. Since 1957, New Zealand has had an official presence in Antarctica, establishing one of the first permanent bases on the Ice at Scott Base. This book is a celebration not only of Antarctica, and more specifically the Ross Sea region, but also of the many men and women who have contributed to our understanding of this unique environment and its impact on our world.
