Description

John Harrison’s Forgotten Footprints is the untold story
of the sailors, sealers and eccentrics who discovered the
last continent: Antarctica.
A thrilling record of lost triumph and tragedy, a saga
of adventure and ambition against all odds, and a
compelling insight into extraordinary personalities
and the times that shaped them, Forgotten Footprints
captures the fascination of this most extreme,
mysterious and beautiful of environments in John
Harrison’s characteristically vivid and affecting prose.
