Books Worth Reading. Stories Worth Telling.
Why Antarctica by Robert Flynn and Colin Bass
First in our new Narrative Travel Journal series
Featured Publications
In February 2012, award-winning author Robert Flynn and his grandson Colin Bass visited their seventh and final continent—Antarctica. This is the account of that journey.
Antarctica: A Narrative Travel Journal is part memoir, part personal journal. Read Robert’s essays on the history, the wildlife, and the wonder of the southernmost continent—then record your own thoughts, plans, and impressions alongside his. Space to write and sketch. Stars to rate. Prompts to consider. QR codes to companion content online. And room, at last, to set down what travel actually feels like from the inside.
The first volume in the Narrative Travel Journal series—for fellow travelers, armchair explorers, and everyone already planning their next trip.

And all Kenny wanted was an island vacation with his new girlfriend…
