We’re giving away five autographed copies of explorer Robert Swan’s arresting new book Antarctica 2041. To nab one, all you have to do is submit your very own review of another terrific book: Crude World: The Twilight of Oil by Peter Maas. (Read more about both titles at our new books page.) To submit your review just click on Comments below and start writing. Puh-lease keep it under 400 words — and be quick. The winners will be the first five submissions. Happy reading!
