Pink Ice tells the compelling story of the political struggles over
Antarctica and the South Atlantic. It shows how Britain and
Argentina have sought to invest these thinly populated spaces -
composed mostly of ice, rock, and water - with cultural and
national importance. The author, who has interviewed leading
politicians and civil servants including Lord Carrington, Lord
Owen, Lord Chalfont, Lord Hurd, and Lord Shackleton, demonstrates
how political rivalries may be played out in other competitive
arenas such as World Cup football. With the 20th anniversary of the
Falklands War in 2002, Pink Ice provides a timely analysis of how
territorial disputes simply refuse to fade away.
