Description

The Abominable Snow-Women by Dorothy Braxton. Dorothy Braxton, New Zealand journalist, had one consuming, overpowering ambition: to see for herself the wonders and mystery of the Antarctic.... Over and over again she tried to break the 'petticoat ban'. Once or twice, when she seemed to be on the point of success, the dream faded. She kept on trying. Still no luck. The US and New Zealand authorities who maintained scientific bases on the Antarctic continent had made up their minds: this was no place for women. Then Lars Lindblad, Swedish-American organiser of unconventional travel-tours, teamed up with New Zealand's Holm Shipping Company, who had chartered the Danish polar-exploration ship Magga Dan, and with this joint venture came Dorothy Braxton's chance. The dust jacket has light to medium general wear with some small tape repairs. The book remains tight and bright.
