Mawson was a member of an Antarctic expedition that…went a bit wrong. For lack of any other solution to the problem, he had to walk back, dragging a sledge behind him. For quite a lot of it, he was alone.

The Martian by Andy Weir is a fantastic survival story. If you’ve seen the movie, the book is even better. If you haven’t seen the movie, read the book first but then definitely see the movie too.

into the wild by Krakauer seems like it would be a cornerstone.
