Product description

Two Irish heroes of exploration brought to life by expert polar exploration author Michael Smith. Have you ever heard of Sir Ernest Shackleton? What about Tom Crean? These two brave Irishmen and shipmates pioneered Antarctic research at a time when this frozen region was still an unexplored frontier. We’ll leave the in-depth history to the books. But if you want daring rescues against all the odds, true comradeship, icy shipwrecks and dangerous journeys across the barren polar wastes, read these books!

Thrilling biographies of two Irish heroes of Antarctic exploration

Written for children by polar exploration expert Michael Smith

Michael has also written biographies of Captain Oates and Sir James Wordie

He has given talks at the Royal Geographical Society and Scott Polar Research Institute
