The Crossing of the Antarctica – Sir Vivian Fuchs; Sir Edmund Hillary 1st Edition 1958

“A story of courage and enterprise, of endurance and cheerfulness, that will stir the hearts and minds of young people of all ages for generations to come.” – Sir Edward Appleton FRS, in The Scotsman.

“Although the everlasting ice remains as the background to all that happens, it is a story on an altogether more human scale which finally emerges and which gives this account its particular interest. Photographs which must leave even a reader familiar with Alpine and Himalayan colouring admiring and amazed.” – The Times.
