Synopsis

Antarctica: 40 Popular Tourist Destinations is a journey through the frozen heart of Earth’s southernmost continent, where towering glaciers, historic sites, resilient wildlife, and pioneering science coexist in breathtaking harmony. Written in a clear, accessible style, the book introduces readers to 40 unique locations—from the windswept Vinson Massif to the serene Wilhelmina Bay—each brimming with natural beauty, scientific importance, or historical depth. Beyond being a travel guide, it’s a celebration of human spirit and nature’s extremes, offering insights into climate challenges, conservation efforts, and the lives of explorers and researchers. Through vivid storytelling, it brings alive penguin colonies, iconic research stations, icy wildernesses, and the legacy of early Antarctic expeditions. This book is perfect for curious minds, armchair travelers, and anyone fascinated by our planet’s most mysterious continent. It’s a tribute to exploration, resilience, and the fragile wonder that is Antarctica.

    A herd of bison standing in the snow. Layered bluffs of multicolored sandstone. A silver Airstream trailer on a mountain highway. These are familiar sights for Neil Mathison and his wife, Susan. Newly retired, their son in college, they embark upon a great American road trip "uncoupled from the tyranny of calendars or a specific journey." Airstream Country recounts their travels across the western United States as they move from Montana to Malibu and Seattle to Silverton, winding their way through millions of years of geological history with their Airstream in tow. Along the way they encounter upheavals and depositions, ancient seas and young mountains, and stone towers and striated canyons, which are all illuminated by Mathison's knowledgeable commentary. Even after thousands of miles and eons of geology, their adventures are never finished, for, as Mathison writes, "We learn by travel where we ought to travel more."
