Hampton Sides is an award-winning editor of Outside and the author of the bestselling histories Hellhound on his Trial, Blood and Thunder and Ghost Soldiers. He lives in New Mexico with his wife, Anne, and their three sons. (hinzugefügt von Random House)… (mehr) Hampton Sides - Kingdom of Ice Please join Green Apple Books and the S.F. Elks Lodge, in welcoming award-winning author Hampton Sides to the historic San Francisco Elks Lodge on Union Square, to celebrate his newest book, In the kingdom of ice, on Wednesday, September 24 at 7:00 p.m. Hampton Sides is the best-selling author of Ghost Soldiers and Hellhound On His Trail, but his newest chronicle of the grand and terrible polar voyage of The Jeanette, and America's last efforts at reaching the North Pole in the 1890s, is his most thrilling yet. With strong ties to San Francisco, and a cast of characters to rival any in history (including John Muir, and controversial newspaper magnate and bon vivant, James Gordon Bennett) In the kingdom of ice is a gripping saga of courage and suffering that makes Shackelton's Endurance seem like a walk in the park on a lazy Sunday afternoon. The free event is part of the successful author series, "Cocktails and Conversations at the Lodge," and will be held in the main room of the S.F. Elks Lodge, the oldest extant lodge in the United States, established in 1873. An architectural marvel, this normally private Elk's lodge is home to guests wishing to celebrate the publication of In the kingdom of ice, and those hoping to have a cocktial with Hampton Sides—of course, this means you!

No one knew what existed beyond the fortress of ice rimming the northern oceans, although theories abounded. The foremost cartographer in the world, a German named August Petermann, believed that warm currents sustained a verdant island at the top of the world. National glory would fall to whoever could plant his flag upon its shores.
James Gordon Bennett, the eccentric and stupendously wealthy owner of "The New York Herald," had recently captured the world's attention by dispatching Stanley to Africa to find Dr. Livingstone. Now he was keen to re-create that sensation on an even more epic scale. So he funded an official U.S. naval expedition to reach the Pole, choosing as its captain a young officer named George Washington De Long, who had gained fame for a rescue operation off the coast of Greenland. De Long led a team of 32 men deep into uncharted Arctic waters, carrying the aspirations of a young country burning to become a world power. On July 8, 1879, the USS "Jeannette" set sail from San Francisco to cheering crowds in the grip of "Arctic Fever."
The ship sailed into uncharted seas, but soon was trapped in pack ice. Two years into the harrowing voyage, the hull was breached. Amid the rush of water and the shrieks of breaking wooden boards, the crew abandoned the ship. Less than an hour later, the "Jeannette "sank to the bottom, and the men found themselves marooned a thousand miles north of Siberia with only the barest supplies. Thus began their long march across the endless ice--a frozen hell in the most lonesome corner of the world. Facing everything from snow blindness and polar bears to ferocious storms and frosty labyrinths, the expedition battled madness and starvation as they desperately strove for survival.
With twists and turns worthy of a thriller, In the kingdom of ice is a spellbinding tale of heroism and determination in the most unforgiving territory on Earth.
Hampton Sides, contributing editor of Outside and editor of The Wild File, is also the author of Ghost Soldiers. He lives in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
