  • Praise for A Year at the Bottom of the World

    "If you are in the least bit interested in Antarctica, as I have been for about 20 years, READ THIS BOOK. Mastro is a brilliant travel writer whose simple, witty, easily enjoyable style keeps you feeling as though you were there experiencing the whole thing yourself. "Amazon Reviewer
    "This book is amazing!!! The photos are spectacular, and the author is very descriptive -- he makes you feel like you are actually there. Recommend highly. "Amazon Reviewer
    "The photos are glorious and breathtaking and serve to illustrate the stories Mastro writes. He gives you the majesty of this bleak land, as well as the intimacy that comes as the night closes in for the winter, and finally the small slivers of joy that come as the winter begins to recede and light returns to the continent. Just a wonderful book. "Amazon Reviewer J.J. Kwashnak
    "Mastro's keen eye, wry turn of phrase and dramatic photographs make this an accurate and engaging account of the Antarctic life. This book is the best account of contemporary life in Antarctica."Amazon Reviewer L.J. Conrad
