ISLAND AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD

ISLAND AT THE EDGE OF THE WORLD
Venables, Stephen
A South Georgia Odyssey. London, 1991, Hodder & Stoughton, First U.K. Edition. 177 pp, 3 maps, diagram and 33 colour photographs. Spectacular exploring and climbing expedition in wild South Georgia. On this remote Sub-Antarctic Island their team was hit by fierce blizzards and at one point endured 23 days trapped in an ice cave. Venables and team explored pristine areas teeming with wildlife and makes a thoughtful plea for protection of this special yet fragile paradise. Scarce. DJ, near Fine.
