I went thru a spell of reading biographies/memoirs on Arctic and Antarctic explorers. This was definitely the best written and a gripping story. It fascinates me that people who go through such hardships will sign up for the next trip to go out.

This is an incredible true survival story. I can't believe all that they went through.

Reading this again for Book Club January 2012. ...more
