For example: some fiction books contain foul language, some history books give graphic details of the violence of war, and some theology books contain views you may not agree with. So like I said: use caution. Think before, during, and after you read!

 76-WORD REVIEW

Niven skillfully crafts the tale of the Karluk and its crew, taking us along their journey through treacherous ice and harsh winter conditions. Exploration turns into a quest for survival as the bitter cold sets in and supplies begin to run out. Rather than merely retell historical events, Niven wisely invests us in the people and their hopes and fears. Even if history isn’t your favorite subject, this book will be worth your time to read.
