This book has a rather heavy text but nevertheless is an excellent read.


Gripping story!
The beauty, richly described by Cherry; the torturous conditions at times, how they kept busy and sane during the long long dark winter. This is an inspiring, suspenseful story full of rich detail about what life on The Ice was like for these brave men who spent almost 3 years there in the early years of this century, when sails were still used on ships. . . . I was completely enthralled even though I knew at least the rough outlines of the story before I began. I highly recommend it.


Too cold!
Some of the places they went were perhaps the worst I could imagine. These guys travelled in temperatures that you wouldn't think humans could survive for more than a few minutes. I remember thinking these guys were K-Raz-ee. It's well worth the read.
