As our explorers reach the North Pole, see our live diary for more information, I’ve been thinking what it must be like out there on the ice. Other than chartering your own exploration out to the North Pole a possible way of gaining some understanding might be to following in the footsteps of polar explorers through books.
Fiona Thornewill, explorer and wife of our exploration leader Mike Thornewill, gives some suggestions:
Catherine Hartley – South Without a Beard
Mind Over Matter – Ranulph Fiennes
Captain Scott – Ranulph Fiennes
A Life of Aspley Cherry – Garrard
Shadows on the Wasteland – Mike Stroud
I’ve also searched amazon under the search Polar exploration…
Of course you might fancy more of an adventure and if so Mike and Fiona’s company Polar Challenge International are more than equipped to take you to both the North and South Pole.
