Charting Polar Seas
By some fortunate encounters and decisions, Adam Kerr found himself charting the seas of both the Antarctic and Arctic. This work was carried out first for the Falkland Island Government (now the British Antarctic Survey) and later for the Canadian Government.

This book contains fascinating insights into what lies hidden beneath the polar seas in regions where temperatures sometimes drop as low as -62 C."
