"This highly enjoyable book is an important addition to polar and exploration history collections or for biography or women's studies shelves." -Library Journal
"To say that [Herbert] merely balances the record with Polar Wives would be a gross understatement. Every story Herbert tells is fascinating for itself, and the book is compelling. With a nice selection of photos, an ample supply of larger-than-life characters, and settings like no other, this is a book that should easily stand the test of time and has earned its place on exploration history shelves everywhere." -Bookslut
