Polar Dream
written by Helen Thayer, foreword by Sir Edmund Hillary

The Heroic Saga of the First Solo Journey By A Woman and Her Dog to the Pole

In 1988, Helen Thayer set off to do what no other woman had ever done: ski to the North Pole. Planning to make the journey alone, at the last minute she was persuaded to take along a black husky named Charlie. More than once, Charlie would save her life. Polar Dream is not only a story of one woman's remarkable acheivement, but one of companionship and survival as well.

"A page-turner...Fully captures the drama of what was a remarkable acheivement."
--The Washington Times
Paperback 256 pages - (9/02)
