Reviews

The hardcover book is beautifully laid out with full colour photographs, and offers a humble insight that will appeal not only to those who love the outdoors or are interested in polar exploration, but also to anybody wanting to learn about the effects that global warming is having on our polar regions. * Trek & Mountain Magazine * Eric Larsen is one of the most influential climate voices in the world today. His Last North Expedition puts an incredibly powerful and urgent face on climate change in a way that's never been seen before. And as a world-renowned athlete and explorer, Larsen makes this global threat real to us all through his amazing storytelling, impactful images, and effective use of social media. --Chris Steinkamp, Executive Director, Protect Our Winters There are explorers and there are those who write about exploration. Eric Larsen is one of the few who do both well. As a polar explorer, Larsen is in a class by himself. But what really sets him apart is his ability to tell stories about his journeys in a way that inspires us to take action; to do something to protect the places he speaks of so eloquently. --Mark Menlove, Executive Director, Winter Wildlands Alliance
