SOUTH OF THE SUN

by Russell Owen ‧ RELEASE DATE: N/A

Now available in a regular trade edition -- this human interest study of the first Byrd Antarctic expedition, of the personalities and their relation the one to the other under circumstances that throw them into close intimacy and under trying conditions. Not a story of exploration -- not ""escape reading"" for the armchair voyager; rather a study in human psychology. Owen was the Times reporter with the expedition, and in this story of the group and the living conditions at the base, he gives one a different conception of the personal equation at close range.
