Turney in the ice.

Ice, Mud and Blood was my first of Turney, and an amazing must read. When I heard his ship was stuck in the Antarctic ice a few years back, my first thought was, 'I hope he writes about that.' Well, Iced In is one of those edge of your seat stories, he had his family with him, was stuck in the ice, the other ice breakers were stuck...what a great read.
