About this title

About the Author:

Felicity Aston has spent over a decade travelling, working and living all over the Polar Regions. In 2009 she led the most international team of women ever to ski to the South Pole; this became the subject of her first book, Call of the White, a finalist in the Banff Mountain Book Competition in 2011. Outside Magazine, the leading adventure-travel magazine in the US, named her one of their 2012 Adventurers of the Year.

Review:

'An extraordinary journey of solitude and determination' -- Ben Fogle 'Felicity's dynamic and inspiring storytelling links us all to our own crossing, helping us all push beyond our fears to reach our goals. Her descriptions of the ice and her honesty of the feelings it brings forth, stir our love for that magnificent place and the lifestyle of the challenge - we want to return!' -- Ann Bancroft and Liv Arnesen, polar explorers 'Felicity's gripping adventure captures the thrill and fear of Antarctic exploration' -- Ranulph Fiennes 'Resilient, brave, daring, foolhardy, admirable and hugely likeable' -- Joanna Lumley 'her achievement is remarkable' The Daily Mail 'admirable, emotional and enchanting... a must-read' Wanderlust
