An account of an adventurous year in the Antarctic.The author was Australian observer in Adelie Land with the Third French Antarctic Expedition and this is the year that this book describes. The expedition to which the author was attached had three teams of huskies which were in his care.He trained them and they trained him.The characters of the individual dogs are drawn so clearly - Boss Bjorn Fram the leaders Aspirin the clown Ifaut the beautiful Helen the little dark she-devil and the others - that one comes to know them as well as one knows one's own dogs.When the time approaches for the expedition to leave and the dogs to be destroyedthe reader becomes as desperately anxious about their fate as were the Dovers and his companions.One of the objects of the expedition was to maintain the first all-the-year-round study of the life of those marvellous birdsthe Emperor penguins.There is much about these birdsseals and other penguins in the book. There are also brilliant descriptions of the Antarctic scene and weather.There is at times tense excitement.Plenty of it.In particular there is an almost epic account of a long journey across the sea ice in the appalling conditions of darkness and blizzard in midwinter.
