‎THE HOME OF THE BLIZZARD. Being the Story of the Australasian Expedition 1911-1914‎

‎William Heinemann 1915. Cloth. Very Good. 1st 2 Volume Edition; Vol I xxx 349pp Photogravure frontispiece 8 colour plate leaves 108 plate leaves 4 folding 17 text illustrations. Vol II xiii 338pp Photogravure frontispiece 10 colour plate leaves 93 plate leaves 5 folding 20 text illustrations 3 folding maps in rear pocket. Original dark blue cloth title gilt to upper board and spine pictorial block - "Leaning into the Wind" - in silver to front cover. The book is in the same format as Shackleton�s Heart of the Antarctic which is advertised on the first half-title verso. Initially intending to be a member of Scott�s party Mawson decided to command his own expedition the first official Australasian Antarctic Expedition. Mawson charted more than 2000 miles of coastline and nearly lost his life in a wild sledge journey. In the process he developed a detailed scientific analysis of George V Land and Macquarie Island and produced this classic account of heroic age exploits which includes stunning photography from the camera of Frank Hurley. Account of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition 1911-1914 led by Douglas Mawson. Shore paries wintered at Cape Denison and on the Shackleton Ice Shelf. The former base was unfortunately located in an area of constant gale-force winds -- hence the title. In December 1912 a sledge party reached the South Magnetic Pole located by Eric Webb. Meanwhwile another party consisting of Mawson Ninnis and Mertz explored eastwards across George V Land. Only Mawson returned to base Ninnis having fallen down a crevasse and Mertz having died of starvation and compliications. The expedition would discover 1320 miles of land including the Mertz Denman and Scott Glaciers and the Davis Sea and map 800 miles of coastline between Gaussberg and Cape Adare all along the Adelie Land coast and beyond. Mawson's tale is one of the great stories of survival of the heroic age of Antarctic exploration. Exploring with Ninnis & Mertz in 1912 Ninnis was lost down a crevasse. With him went the 6 fittest dogs & the most indispensable supplies. Mertz & Mawson improvised feeding the dogs worn out mitts & raw-hide straps but eventually the weakest dogs were killed to feed them all until all the dogs were gone. The two men reserved the dog's livers as the meat easiest to chew unaware that liver's toxins were slowly poisoning the men as they consumed it. Mertz became delirious and died. Mawson continued the soles of his feet separating and his toes and fingers festering. Miraculously he found a depot of food and arrived eventually at the main depot to see the ship departing on the horizon. He wintered over with the 6 men who had remained to continue the search. On Dec. 24 1913 their 2 year journey was finally over. Taurus 100; Rosove 217.A1; Spence 774; Conrad p208.
