The Arctic

Tony Soper's guide provides an essential handbook for visitors bound for the coastal fringes of the Arctic Ocean. It also proves a fascinating source of information for naturalists and armchair explorers of the Arctic. This region is home to many species, including the polar bear, the Atlantic walrus, the Greenland shark and a multitude of migrant birds, all brought to life in this beautifully illustrated guide. Tour operators, cruise ships, the Aurora Borealis and a history of Arctic exploration are also covered for the complete guide.
