If a plunger and mop gave him a ticket to the ice continent, so be it. Nothing short of a seat in the cargo hold of a Star Lifter transport plane would stop Frosty Wooldridge and his appointment with destiny in Antarctica. Resolved that taking a job as a house keeper was the only way to reach the bottom of the world, Wooldridge set off on an adventure that even Walter Mitty couldn't have imagined. Following in the footsteps of Amundsen, Scott and Shackleton, Wooldridge steps into the Antarctic landscape, culture and environment with the keen eyes of an explorer in a benignly cruel, frozen land. Within days of landing at McMurdo Station, Wooldridge sets off on the first of many assignments as the Antarctic Sun's sole reporter. Trudging across the polar plateau, Wooldridge shares his authentic wit, wisdom and perspective through the lens of a man entranced by an unforgiving frozen desert. He carries readers into the vagaries of people living on the ice-their foibles, personalities and dreams. "An Extreme Encounter" transports readers into the bowels of million year old glaciers, katabatic winds, to the tops of smoking volcanoes, scuba diving under the ice, wacky people, death, outlaw activities and rare moments where he meets penguins, whales, seals and Skua birds. Hang on to your seatbelts-you're in for a wild ride where the bolt goes into the bottom of the globe.

Have you rubbed shoulders with Lewis and Clark on their Corps of Discovery 1803 expedition? Did you ever meet the famous mountain man Jim Bridger? Have you set eyes on the Grand Tetons? Watched Old Faithful explode into the sky? How about water falling up? Can you imagine a natural rock bridge 103 yards long? On this ride, you'll see all these historical figures, natural wonders and much more. This is a funny, compelling ride along the Spine of the Rockies." Paul Warneke "This bicycle dream ride carries a bit of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn. The author mixes hope with adventure, pain with courage and bicycling with mountains. John Brown, a friend left behind to battle cancer, provides guts and heart for his two friends who ride into the teeth of nature's fury. Along the way, you'll laugh, cry and gain new appreciations while pondering about the meaning of life. It's a great read!" Jeff Rockford
