FURTHEST NORTH is the lavishly illustrated true story of a remarkable, unimaginable, journey. In the summer of 2011 Jock Wishart and 5 oarsmen set out on a 500 miles voyage rowing to the 1996 certified position of the Magnetic North Pole. 

In four challenging weeks they crossed open water where ice was once metres thick all year round, dodging ice floes and hauling their boat over the ice. 

It is a story for our time: an adventure that is only possible because the Arctic is under threat from climate change.
