Deep in certain caves, ice survives the hottest summer, and no one could quite say why. Edwin Balch explores these freezing caverns across Europe and America, weighing the theories behind their strange subterranean cold. Part travelogue, part scientific puzzle, it ventures where few naturalists dared. For the reader fascinated by the earth's coldest hidden corners. Descend into the ice caves.
