Reseña del editor

In this biography, Shipman brings the redoubtable and unique Florence out from beneath the shadow of her more famous husband. It is the story of a remarkable woman, of an extraordinary love affair, but also of the golden age of exploration. Reconstructed through journals, documents, maps and photographs, it chronicles the life of a tenacious, compassionate and unlikely explorer a woman who stood alongside some of the toughest men in history to face the unknown.
