The Home of the Blizzard is a tale of discovery and adventure, of
pioneering deeds, great courage, heart-stopping rescues and heroic
endurance. This is Mawson's own account of his years spent in
sub-zero temperatures and gale-force winds. At its heart is the
epic journey of 1912-13, during which both his companions perished.
Told in a laconic but gripping style, this is the classic account
of the struggle for survival of the Australasian Antarctic
Expedition - a journey which mapped more of Antarctica than any
expedition before or since. The photographs included in this book
were taken on the journey by Frank Hurley, later to achieve fame on
Sir Ernest Shackleton's Endurance expedition. 'One of the greatest
accounts of polar survival in history.' - Sir Ranulph Fiennes
