DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The book is designed for people from 12 to 112. It describes both polar regions: the Arctic where the North Pole is surrounded by sea ice and ocean, and the Antarctic continent, where the South Pole is surrounded by land. The Arctic's megastar, the polar bear, is featured, as are the Antarctic's many, very cute penguins. It includes information on the best times to travel to each area, travelling by expedition ship, and the roles of the three different types of crew on these ships. The ships' crews have deep, valuable experience and provide good information. Many are specialists in their fields: marine biologists, cetacean (whale/dolphin) specialists, historians, geologists, ornithologists and of course, professional photographers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The information in this book builds on my photos and the stories from my travels. It targets 12 years and up, people with an adventurous spirit who want to learn more about the two "ends" of our planet. If they have the opportunity, maybe they'll go to one, or both, to visit and see the extraordinary beauty and, of course, the animals. Perhaps this will spark interest in the sciences, and young adults will find a way to work there, learning and studying more about these regions, the animals that live there and the climate. Or perhaps just reading about these areas and seeing my photos will be sufficiently rewarding.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Considered wise and powerful by the Inuit and other Native cultures, and celebrated in legend and literature, polar bears have become a charismatic symbol of animals threatened by climate change in the Arctic ecosystem. Yet for centuries, polar bears were demonized and slaughtered by adventurers who sailed the icy seas seeking wealth and glory. These fascinating stories from northern lands, including Canada, Alaska, Greenland and the Norwegian islands of Spitsbergen, draw from the annals of Arctic exploration and more recent polar bear research to capture the ingenuity, power and majesty of the world's largest land carnivore.

Year-round human population: 943. Yet despite the isolation and the searing cold here at the arctic's edge, visitors from around the globe flock to the town every fall, driven by a single purpose: to see polar bears in the wild. Churchill is "The Polar Bear Capital of the World," and for one unforgettable "bear season," Zac Unger, his wife, and his three children moved from Oakland, California, to make it their temporary home. But they soon discovered that it's really the polar bears who are at home in Churchill, roaming past the coffee shop on the main drag, peering into garbage cans, languorously scratching their backs against fence posts and front doorways. Where kids in other towns receive admonitions about talking to strangers, Churchill schoolchildren get "Let's All Be Bear Aware" booklets to bring home. (Lesson number 8: Never explore bad-smelling areas.) Zac Unger takes readers on a spirited and often wildly funny journey to a place as unique as it is remote, a place where natives, tourists, scientists, conservationists, and the most ferocious predators on the planet converge. In the process he becomes embroiled in the controversy surrounding "polar bear science" -- and finds out that some of what we've been led to believe about the bears' imminent extinction may not be quite the case. But mostly what he learns is about human behavior in extreme situations . . . and also why you should never even think of looking a polar bear in the eye.
