The complete story of the Arctic, illustrated with over 500 colour photographs, by one of the world's leading Arctic scholars and explorers: a basic resource for anyone interested in the Polar regions.

The Arctic has recently become the subject of attention from both politicians concerned about the effects of climate change and tourists interested in its icy beauty. Richard Sale, one of the world's leading Arctic scholars and a professional glaciologist, presents readers with the culmination of a lifetime's work studying this region. With 500 stunning photographs, this book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in this beautiful and little-known part of the world.

Richard Sale is one of the world's leading Arctic scholars and explorers and a professional glaciologist. He has written widely on Polar history, exploration and wildlife and is the author of many books, including To the Ends of the Earth: The History of Polar Exploration which was the 2003 UK Outdoor Writers Guild Best Book on an Outdoor Theme, and The Gyrfalcon (Popatov and Sale), which was the US Wildlife Society's Book of the Year for 2006.
