The Ice Master tells the chilling true story of the "Karluk's" doomed 1913 Arctic expedition and the heroic efforts of its captain. Based on the diaries of those who were rescued and those who perished, this account offers a gripping insight into one of the most harrowing survival stories in history.
Against the backdrop of one of the harshest environments on Earth, the ship's captain embarked on an incredible journey by foot through Siberia to find help. This is a story of human endurance and determination, as well as the unforgiving power of nature.
