Thrills every minute

Article Abstract:

Authentic tales of adventure can provoke the reader's mind to deep insight and contemplation. Literature of the polar regions is a good place for those interested in adventure stories to start. 'A History of Polar Exploration' by David Mountfield is among the best, and 'The Worst Journey in the World' by Apsley Cherry-Garrard is also a classic.
