Ever wondered what it's like to come face-to-face with a leopard seal? Or plunge into the icy depths of the Antarctic waters in nothing but a neoprene wetsuit? Richard Fralick, Ph.D. recounts his experiences as Chief Diver on the first SCUBA expedition to study algae in Antarctica in 1964. Their task was to observe, collect, identify, and preserve examples of marine algae in freezing waters. From tumultuous seas to curious (and sometimes dangerous!) animals, this book takes a close look at the challenges and day-to-day life faced by Fralick and his team as they endured the barren Antarctic to learn more about the wonderful planet we call Earth. This version of the book includes original color photographs from the expedition. Read more
