About the Book

The Southern Ocean – Earth’s most dangerous body of water – circles Antarctica, acts as a violent roil of wind and water, links all other oceans and is feared by sailors. The only human influence is scattered outposts of people who came ashore intentionally or were shipwrecked or abandoned. These are their stories.
