Call of the Ice - Fifty Years of New Zealand in Antarctica

Antarctica has always loomed large in the collective consciousness of New Zealanders; as a backdrop to heroic exploration and legendary 'Kiwi' ingenuity, as a source of fascinating scientific discoveries and as an inspiration for poetry and art. This book is a celebration of the landscape, history, science and adventure of Antarctica and of the many men and women who have responded to the 'call of the ice'.
