ORDEAL BY ICE SHIPS OF THE ANTARCTIC RORKE BRYAN
ORDEAL BY ICE SHIPS OF THE
RORKE BRYAN
Surrounded by hazardous seas and pitiless ice, Antarctica was first sighted by Europeans less than three centuries ago. Since then, hundreds of ships have voyaged around that continent, challenged by poorly charted waters, storms, pack ice, icebergs and disease. This major new work fills an important gap in polar literature and is destined to become the definitive reference book on these ships. 245 x 175mm • 560 pages • 200 photos • Hardback • ISBN 9781848321168 • £35

SAILING INTO THE PAST LEARNING FROM REPLICA SHIPS
Until recently, there was little practical knowledge of the ships of the distant past. We could only surmise as to the manner in which a Viking ship sailed or how a Greek trireme was rowed. The building of accurate replicas has changed all that, and what has been learnt about the ships and boats of our ancestors has radically changed our perceptions of sailing and voyaging. This beautifully-illustrated book charts those discoveries. 246 x 189mm • 224 pages• 175 photos • Hardback • ISBN 9781848320130 • £25
