This is an awesome book. Well read, with a ton of heavily researched information about the true American expedition to the South Pacific and Antartica in 1838. Philbrick does a great job of bringing the logs and journals to life and adding in a realism of what life on the ocean would have been like for this small band of adventurers. I loved it from the begginging to the end!
