Disaster on the Ice presents the life of Sir Douglas Mawson from his early fascination with geology to a gripping account of his expedition to Antarctica in 1911. Tension mounts as Mawson sets out from base camp with a small team only to suffer the loss of his men, dogs and supplies. He battles bitter cold with a makeshift tent, almost no food and a failing body. After spending a month alone on the ice, Mawson just barely makes it back to camp alive.
