Peter Hillary, mountaineer and explorerFor a long time it seemed Antarctica would remain the sole hold out in a nearly fully explored world.

Sunday Star TimesChristian has the good non-fiction storytellers gift of ensuring the tale ticks along, avoiding unnecessary detail and narrative diversions. He is strong on the disagreements, resentments and divisions that existed among the 33 expedition members, who are too often portrayed as noble angels. Sydney Morning HeraldEven though you know how its going to end, its a page-turner as Christian uses letters and diaries to recount how the 1910 expedition progressed, the characters who made it and how they coped with the brutal conditions ... a deeply affecting tale.
