Preview Just Tell Them I Survived: Women in Antarctica
Description:
This collection of interviews celebrates women's participation in national and private expeditions to Antarctica. From the first women scientists to visit Macquarie Island in 1959 to contemporary explorers, this book presents the deep-seated longings of women to join Antarctic expeditions, the barriers they have had to overcome, and the raw accounts of women's experiences as a minority in tight human communities. These women talk in detail about their impact in a field where men traditionally marked out the territory-physically, socially, and psychologically-and discuss what attracted them to embark on their journeys.
