    Reisverhaal Alone in Antarctica | Felicity Aston
    Reisverhaal Alone in Antarctica | Felicity Aston
    What would it feel like to be out there alone in that empty vastness? Just before midnight on 24 November 2011, Felicity is left completely alone on the coast of Antarctica. The isolation is instant and devastating. Only three people in the world have crossed Antarctica alone. The first two were men and both Norwegian. At the age of 34, British woman Felicity Aston became the third. Unlike her predecessors, she didn't use kites or parasails to assist her. Within days, frozen into her facemask and reflecting on what had drawn her to such a place, she was battling desperate weather as she towed her heavy sledges. Every morning she wakes believing she cannot face another day as the expedition becomes a race against time to reach the coast before the last flight out. This gripping and inspirational account of personal endurance shows what you can achieve when you grit your teeth and decide just to get through today in one piece.

    Fotoboek Antarctica | Amber Books
    Presented in a landscape format and with captions explaining the story behind each entry, Antarctica is a stunning collection of images celebrating this hostile yet striking continent. On the southernmost tip of the Earth lies one of the world's biggest and most unfriendly landmasses. From the waters of the Southern Ocean to the ice shelves, glaciers, volcanoes, and mountains, Antarctica is one of the most mysterious yet intriguing continents in existence. It is the windiest, driest, and coldest place on Earth, making it uninhabitable for humans; however, the snow, ice, water, and rocks make it simply stunning. Did you know that if you throw boiling water into the air in Antarctica, it will instantly vaporize? Despite these unimaginably harsh conditions, this unique continent is home to a vast array of wildlife; penguins, seals, and whales are among the animals that brave this frozen planet. From the Ross ice shelf, the largest in Antarctica, to Mount Erebus, currently the most activ…
