Summary

This is a book for the dog lover, and more especially for all who are interested in Australian Antarctic history. The collection of stories from ex-expeditioners tells of their love and admiration for these hard working heroic animals who played such a significant part in exploration work, transporting scientists to dangerous crevassed areas in outlying mountains and over the sea ice.
The episodes are contributed by expeditioners who served in Antarctica during the past 45 years.
