Title
Antarctica: A Biography - Hardcover
by David Day (Author)
Like Captain James Cook, I have been slowly circling the Antarctic.
While labouring on other books, the ice-covered continent kept
looming into view like an alluring mirage, suggesting itself as a
subject worthy of closer exploration. The chance to do so came after
I completed Conquest: How societies overwhelm others (2008),
which examined how so-called 'supplanting societies' claim territories
and make them their own over an extended period of time. It
was a new way of looking at the history of the world.
