The Home of the BlizzardCompact Disc, 1 February 2013

The Home of the Blizzard is a tale of discovery and adventure, of pioneering deeds, great courage, heart-stopping rescues, and heroic endurance. This is Mawson's own account of his years spent in Antarctica, travelling in sub-zero temperatures and gale-force winds. At its heart is the epic journey of 1912-13, during which both his companions perished.

Told in a laconic but gripping style, this is the classic account of the struggle for survival of the Australasian Antarctic Expedition--a journey which mapped more of Antarctica than any expedition before or since.
