Deep in the wild Southern Ocean, a snowy volcano, almost 3000 meters high, rises up from the sea like a great white whale. Five times that great white whale of a mountain tried to kill the first team that attempted it.; Yet back they sailed, through the worst seas in the world, to try again.; This is the extraordinary tale of both expeditions, told by those who were there, one of whom sings the story too, as befits the epic saga that it was.
