About the Book

Go now with Tom Crean to the Antarctic in 1901. See this strange new world as he sees it, experience the cold, the danger as he did. "Antarctic Voyager" takes you along with Tom Crean, a seaman on Robert F. Scott's 'Discovery' expedtion 1901-1904. No one had spent a year in the ice, this far south, no one knew at the time how men would survive in this dark, forbidding, yet beautiful new world ripe for exploration and discovery "Antarctic Voyager" goes with Crean on the first of his three adventures there. Each of them was more dangerous than the last, but this book takes you to the very beginning, to the events and forces that shaped the rest of his life.
About the Author: David Hirzel has known the name of Tom Crean since first reading the young adult abridgment (Shackleton's Valiant Voyage) of Alfred Lansing's Endurance about the age of ten. He began writing Tom Crean's story in 1995, and eventually in 2011 published Sailor on Ice about Crean's adventures with Scott's Terra Nova expedition, and in 2013 Hold Fast, a continuation of that story. The present volume, Antarctic Voyager, takes the reader all the way back to the beginning of Tom Crean's polar career, and the chance opportunity to go south from New Zealand into a part of our earth that had yet to be explored. This book seeks to explore the unseen forces that shape us in our young lives as they shaped him in his, in ways we cannot know until we have lived them fully. During the course of researching these books, Mr. Hirzel has become the leader of the Hyde Street Living History Players at San Francisco Maritime National Park. He currently writes from Sky Ranch overlooking the sea in Pacifica CA where he designs houses.
