Rolf Bjelke and Deborah Shapiro plan to sail their 40-foot boat from Sweden to the Antarctic Peninsula and then spend a winter there, deliberately allowing the ice to trap them and hold them hostage in this hostile environment. Would their Northern Light survive the trip only to be crushed by the ice? Could they endure the cold and wind? Would the ice release them the following summer? This adventure contasts the beauty of fiery sunsets, misty mountains, and aquamarine ice caves with punishing storms at sea, deafening winds, and crashing waves from capsizing icebergs. Time on Ice is a superbly narrated and photographed odyssey to the last wilderness on earth.
"In prose that is at times spellbinding, [Shapiro and Bjelke] detail adventures here that readers will thoroughly enjoy in the warmth of their own homes."--Publishers Weekly
