Time on Ice: A Winter Voyage to Antarctica by Deborah Shapiro

When they sailed their modest metal-hulled sailboat NORTHERN LIGHT safely free of Antarctica the first time, adventurers Deborah Shapiro and Rolf Bjelke vowed never to go back. But they neglected the power of the human mind to forget pain. Drawn by a compulsion to trace the route of Shackleton ... memories of awe-striking beauty ... a need to test themselves and their game craft ... and a wish to be more alone and unfettered than any other humans on Earth, they made plans to sail once again for Antarctica and to overwinter there, locked in the ice. LIBRARY JOURNAL called their story "compelling reading."
