Are you too old? Not fit enough? Is it too cold? What to wear? Jo Kessel has advice for every eventuality, offering insider TOP TIPS at the end of each chapter.

Part travelogue, part photo-journal, this expedition cruise travel guide to Antarctica was inspired by the diary of early polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. It's a witty, reflective chronicle which also touches upon more serious issues like Antarctic conservation, plastics pollution and climate change.

This book is a must-read not only for anyone wanting to know how best to enjoy a holiday on this unique continent, but also for those keen to learn more about this icy wilderness and help preserve it for future generations. One thing's for sure: Antarctica is like nowhere else on Earth.
