Narrative of the Ross Sea party of Shackleton's Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition; the "Endurance" was sent to lay depots for the proposed crossing of the continent. This book contains a very good inscription; it is dedicated by the author to Captain A. F. Baker on the half title. Whilst inscriptions from Joyce are not particularly scarce this one includes a quotation from the poem "The Quitter" by Robert Service. Joyce was an admirer of Service as was Shackleton. Joyce described Service as "the Canadian Kipling" and excerpts from "The Quitter" appear in the South Polar Trail. Joyce often signed his books with the Maori phrase "Kia Ora" and it appears here too. Joyce also lists the dates of his Antarctic expeditions in the inscription. The front free end paper has the name and address of a G. M. Baker possibly a descendant of A. F. Baker. 1929 Duckworth hardcover
