Madhouse at the End of the Earth: A Riveting Tale of Survival
On Wednesday, May 5th at 6:30 PM Central Time, indie bookstore The Book Stall presents an online program, as bookseller Jon Grand talks with journalist and author Julian Sancton about his new nonfiction title, Madhouse at the End of the Earth: The Belgica’s Journey Into the Dark Antarctic Night. Nathaniel Philbrick, New York Times bestselling author of In the Heart of the Sea, says of this book, “At once a riveting survival tale and a terrifying psychological thriller, Madhouse at the End of the Earth is a mesmerizing, unputdownable read. It deserves a place beside Alfred Lansing’s immortal classic Endurance.” This program is free.
