Antarctica: The Journey to the End of the Earth

This title is an acquisition.

Antarctica. “Terra Australis Incognita,” or unknown southern land. This is the harshest and coldest place on the planet. There are no bustling cities or green forests here, no large rivers. Only endless snowfields, surrounded on all sides by giant glaciers.

Join us and follow in the footsteps of the early explorers of Antarctica, from the era of great discoveries and first voyages around the world to the present day. Visit the most remote places on the continent and find out how research conducted here has influenced modern society and science.

Antarctica: The Journey to the End of the Earth is filled with striking imagery that captures the frigid splendour of this vast continent and the incredible beauty of its wildlife.
