I enjoyed reading about the expedition & about its place in polar exploration. Jackie was not only successful in Antarctica but held several jobs of responsibility, was a member of Society of Women Geographers, & the Ronne Award for Antarctic Research or Exploration was awarded to two recipients in 2011 & 2014. Yet the early history of polar exploration is still very much male-focused. Let's hope this book can go some way to changing that. 4🌟
