The Magnetism of Antarctica. The Ross Expedition 1839-1843, Paperback/John Knight

This is the first thorough account of the expedition - a pivotal moment in the annals of polar exploration. Never before or since has the Antarctic pack ice been breached by two wooden warships powered by wind alone, without the aid of charts or any prior knowledge of what they were about to carry out and discover.
