Since the nineteenth century, we have been exploring and cruising the polar waters, but there has been very little written about them. Of Penguins and Polar Bears aims to rectify this by examining activity in both the Antarctic and Arctic waters, the habitats of penguins and polar bears. The book provides insight into how the passenger trade developed in these regions, with over a hundred stunning pictures. Whether you are planning a cruise to the Earth's 'last frontier' or are simply interested in exploring less-traveled lands, Arctic expert Christopher Wright will take you on a journey through the history of polar exploration.
From William Bradford's cruise to Greenland in 1869 in a seal-hunting boat to the newest builds of the twenty-first century, this book covers a wide range of expeditions and experiences. It is a must-have gazetteer for anyone interested in cruising the Earth's 'last frontier' and learning more about the history and culture of these remote regions.
