Publisher: Thornton Butterworth London 1936. First Keystone Library edition.

Good hardback with jacket. Green cloth boards are rubbed and bumped at edges with a little fading at spine ends, binding firm, inscription inside front board, pages are tanned and foxed.

Hayes states in his preface of the 1932 copy of this book s publication, all the previous works on Antarctic exploration (however important and seminal) were out of date, so this work was intended to record simply as history, the progress of Antarctic discovery which has abounded in epic incidents during the last twenty-five years. Included is an introduction by Hugh Robert Mill. The purpose of this book is to present a faithful record of events unencumbered by technicalities. The last chapter alone is intended for students, who may well begin with a reference to Appendix I. By this arrangement the lover of adventure and the more serious student will alike find their needs met. [preface].
