THE HOME OF THE BLIZZARD: AN AUSTRALIAN HERO’S CLASSIC TALE OF ANTARCTIC DISCOVERY AND ADVENTURE

Book ID/图书代码： 14058011B48392

English Summary/英文概要： The Home of the Blizzard is a tale of discovery and adventure, of pioneering deeds, great courage, heart-stopping rescues and heroic endurance. This is Mawson’s own account of his years spent in sub-zero temperatures and gale-force winds. At its heart is the epic journey of 1912-13, during which both his companions perished. Told in a laconic but gripping style, this is the classic account of the struggle for survival of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition - a journey which mapped more of Antarctica than any expedition before or since.

The photographs included in this book were taken on the journey by Frank Hurley, later to achieve fame on Sir Ernest Shackleton’s Endurance expedition.
