Over het boek
"Alexander has done a fine job. . . allowing the cat's (and her own) sense of humor to have full run." --New York Times Book Review
When Sir Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance became trapped in the Antarctic ice, all twenty-nine members of the crew were pushed to their limits of survival, including Mrs. Chippy, the ship's estimable cat. Fortunately for posterity, Mrs. Chippy left a diary of the ordeal.
Closely based on the true events of Shackleton's heroic journey, and illustrated with authentic photographs taken by Frank Hurley, expedition photographer, Mrs. Chippy's Last Expedition is a firsthand account of one of the greatest adventures in history--from a unique point of view.
A diary of an astute male cat, "Mrs. Chippy," documents his journey to Antartica with human associate Harry "Chippy" McNeish.
