The Mountains of Madness (Hardcover)

In 1932, two years after the initial Antarctic expedition, another sets off to try and discover exactly what happened on that fateful trip.

Before it leaves, a stranger gives a notebook to the expedition director, Howard Pym, and implores him to read it before they reach their destination.

Preoccupied with the voyage ahead, Howard forgets about it, and naively sails into the dangerous waters ahead.
