Not all publisher's copies were supplied with dustwrapper due to a supply issue. The Japanese Antarctic Expedition 1910-12 under the leadership of army lieutenant Nobu Shirase was the first exploration of Antarctic territory by Japan. After initial scepticism about the expedition they sailed from Tokyo on 29 November 1910 in Kainan-maru a vessel only 100 feet in length. They arrived in Wellington on 8 February 1911 and three days later departed for the Antarctic. The entire trip south was dogged by poor weather and when the coast of Victoria Land was finally sighted conditions were so bad that a landing was impossible. They sailed on through the Ross Sea only to find even worse ice and soon it was impossible to go any further. Shirase ordered the crew to turn the ship northward for Australia. They arrived in Sydney on 1 May 1911 and were initially greeted with suspicion and hostility. Captain Nomura went back to Japan with the secretary to the expedition returning some five months later with provisions ships' parts and other equipment. During the following season a second attempt was made to reach an Antarctic landfall with the specific objective of exploring King Edward VII Land. At the Great Ice Barrier they met Roald Amundsen's ship From which was waiting in the Bay of Whales for the return of Amundsen's South Pole party. Seven men were landed on the Barrier and a 'Dash Patrol' journeyed southward to 80°05'S at which point adverse weather and lack of food and time forced their return. Meanwhile the ship landed another party on the coast of King Edward VII Land where an exploration of the lower slopes of the Alexandra Range was carried out. In mid-February Kainan-maru returned to Japan reaching Yokohama on 20 June 1912. The expedition had sailed some 27000 miles since leaving Japan and despite not reaching the Pole they had achieved many of their other goals. There was a tremendous reception upon their return to Tokyo. Nobu Shirase died in 1946. Glacier Books are experienced and professional booksellers.

ref. 22430No place or date. 8 x 12 cm illustration of a ship in polar waters cut from book or periodical with bold signature at bottom right: 'V. E. Fuchs 1968'. Laid down on piece of white paper. In fair condition but with slight bleeding of ink from signature towards foot of paper. Accompanying the item is an unsigned typed note by the recipient of the autograph on a 4to piece of paper. It reads: 'Antarctic Crossing The autograph of Sir Vivian Fuchs The first crossing of the Antarctic continent was completed at 1.47 p.m. on 2 March 1958 after a 2158 mile trek lasting 99 days from 24th Nov. 1957 from Shackleton Base to Scott Base via the Pole. The crossing party of twelve was led by Dr. now Sir Vivian Ernest Fuchs born 11th Feb 1908 As you can see in the picture it is of the R.R.S. Shackleton and that is why I got Sir Vivian Fuchs to autograph it.' Anthony Tucker in his Guardian obituary 13 November 1999 summed up Fuchs's achievements: 'Famous as the leader of the Commonwealth Trans-Antarctic Expedition of 1957-58 during which he met Sir Edmund Hillary at the South Pole and carried out research which established the existence of a huge continental land mass beneath the polar ice cap Sir Vivian Fuchs . was one of the great adventurers scientist-explorers and expedition organisers of our time. He was director of the Falklands Islands Dependencies Survey from its creation in 1947 and from 1958-73 the continuing director of its successor the British Antarctic Survey BAS. His life spanned a period of massive transition in the nature and purposes of exploration.' No place or date. unknown
