Traveler III
I was surprised and delighted to find out that a new printing run of 20,000 Miles South was done in February of last year! Anyone wanting a paper copy of this outstanding book can find a new softcover edition on Amazon and other book retailers.
In a related and somewhat sad note, I also found out that the co-author, Helen Shreider, passed away just this year, February 6th 2025, at the age of 98. Helen and Frank absolutely deserve to be remembered as two of the greatest adventurers of the 20th century, not only for their amazing journey from Circle, AK to Ushuaia, Argentina, but also for their amazing journey mapping the amazon as well as other expeditions they undertook to Africa and Indonesia.
May they rest in peace and pass into legend.
