Voyage Through the Antarctic

The Antarctic is the least explored area on earth, and the most densely populated with wildlife - whales, seals, dolphins, penguins, albatrosses and many other birds and animals. A natrual sanctuary of spectacular beauty, created and preserved by the sheer extremity of its climate, it has proved the perfect subject for the combined talents of the novelist Richard Adams and the natrualist Ronald Lockley who, in this book, describe their experiences on their voyage aboard the Lindblad Explorer through the Antarctic - down from Cape Horn and up to New Zealand. With the aid of a superb selection of colour and black-and-white photographs by Peter Hirst-Smith, they have produced a unique and highly personal record of a region that may soon be in danger.
