When Johnson went to work for the US Antarctic Program (devoted to scientific research and education in support of the national interest in the Antarctic), he figured he'd find adventure, beauty, penguins, and lofty-minded scientists. Instead he found boredom, alcohol, and bureaucracy. As a dishwasher and garbage man at McMurdo Station, Johnson quickly shed his illusions about Antarctica.

great nostalgic book about the ice
Revisado: 12-20-17
this book is an excellent nostalgic peace or anyone had served at either MCM or NPx. it truly captures what is like to work at these facilities. i know some of the characters that were mentioned in this book. The author goes into tangents that reflect someone who has been in the program a while. If you miss the ice, chapters 1-3 are great. As the book went on, the rating went down for me. Not a bad narrator, I just felt that the author was attempting to shock the listener. I wont listen again.
