Frozen Frontier, Polar Bound A Must read!
Frozen Frontier Polar Bound is now one of my most favorite reads. This is a rare book that will not let me put it down after I started! Author Jane is is a natural born writer with an amazing ability to make me feel right there with her. The technical information she was giving about all phases of her adventure was so understandable,her use of English language so creative and observation and attention to detail amazing. Kindle does not have the beautiful photos that print book has so I have both. When I think of her accomplishment as crew and first woman thru last NW Passage that Captain David Scott Cowper has mastered, is astounding. This has to be a Best Seller and I await her next book!

Well told adventure story
As a solo adventurer with dreams beyond my experience I am a big fan of David and Polar Bound. When I saw Jane's book I grabbed it immediately... expecting a real treat to travel vicariously by David's side. I was not disappointed.Jane is a very talented writer and story teller, putting the reader into the action...whether it be the drudge of climbing into a deep locker or the apprehension of leaping on to an icy dock while holding the lines. Jane also has a great sense of humor.So to David and Jane, thanks for the journey.

NORTHWEST PASSAGE TRANSIT WELL PRESENTED
Excellent review of two transits of the NW Passage by a well known maritime explorer and his female crew. Up to date information on this new cruising destination by expert sailors.

Great travel adventure book
Interesting insights into life with an arctic adventurer.

Title misleading
This book is more about a dysfunctional relationship than about arctic travels.

Book was well written but I was disappointed with the contents
Book was well written but I was disappointed with the contents. I met the couple this year in Petersburg, AK and that prompted me to order book.

Two Stars
Not enough interesting details. Too munh whining about cooking, spilled tea and heavy cushions.

Too much about the author
I started to read this book but soon got bogged down in a heavy sea of nautical terms - and I didn't find it very interesting. It's far more about the author. ME - I did this, then here's ME doing this etc etc. There are some wonderful colour photos including quite a few of - you've guessed - ME.

A classic
An extraordinary man, not many ladies would undertake such voyages. The conditions endured, the scenery and the achievements make this book a must for sailors and adventurers.
