NG Destinations, Antarctica the Last Continent (National Geographic Destinations)

For the first time in its 110-year-long history, the National Geographic Society dedicates a book to the coldest, windiest, highest, driest, least populated, and most remote corner of the earth. "Antarctica: The Last Continent" is a celebration of extremes of hope --- hope that even now, on the dawn of a new millennium [written in 1998], we who can alter any landscape on the earth will have the wisdom to leave this one alone.
