From the 1993/94 Orient Lines Marco Polo brochure...
Dr. Bernard Stonehouse
Dr. Bernard Stonehouse first visited Antarctica in 1946 as a Royal Navy pilot
for the Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey (later the British Antarctic
Survey). He studied penguins and seals on the Antarctic Peninsula, king
penguins on South Georgia, and deer, Dall's sheep and other sub-polar species
in the Yukon. He taught at universities in Britain, New Zealand and North
America and is currently attached to the Scott Polar Research Institute,
Cambridge, where, among other things, he edits the prestigious journal,
Polar Record. His books include Animals of the
Antarctic and Penguins and Sea Mammals of the World.
Side note
On August 14, 1995, I was informed by an anonymous e-mail from someone
apparently at the Scott Polar Research Institute that Dr Beau Riffenburgh is
now the editor of the Polar Record, and that the change actually occurred
several years ago. (The e-mail message didn't have a name attached, but I
don't think that it was really intended to be anonymous.)
