Hello, all –
I’m working on an essay for a literary / general interest magazine about the literature of Antarctica and the Arctic – and I was wondering if I could solicit a couple pieces of information from this group.
One: what’s your favorite Antarctic / Arctic travel book? (Could be anything from older, first-hand expedition accounts, like Shackleton’s South, to more recent, meditative travel books, like Sara Wheeler’s Terra Incognita.)
Two: what initially drew you to be interested in the polar regions?
Thanks in advance for any feedback I receive. This will really help make my essay that much more interesting and engaging.
All the best,
Hunter
