Filled with key details and information. Presented here is the graphic story in word and pictures of the Byrd Antarctic expedition told for the first time. Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd left the States on October 13, 1928, aboard the C.A. Larsen, headed for New Zealand. The Bolling, City of New York, and, James Clark Ross ships, all loaded with the necessary planes, dogs, men and equipment, had been dispatched previously. When all of the ships reached New Zealand, they combined the load to two ships, the Bolling and the City of New York. The expedition ultimately would reach the Ross Ice Shelf on December 28, 1928. Days of laborious unloading and building shelters followed the Expedition's arrival in Antarctica, resulting in a complete village that Byrd named "Little America." Aside from an administration building and bunk house, the complex included radio antenna towers, a mess hall, hangars for the airplanes, storage sheds and a machine shop that contained the first generator of electricity in Antarctica. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
