Alone! is the title of Admiral William Byrd's autobiography.  It’s the story of his life as this celebrated explorer tells about his experience in a little hut in the Antarctic near the South Pole.  Byrd tells how the isolation of seeing no other human being day after day began working on his mind and emotions as he spent the long winter alone, separated from friends and loved ones, even separated from friendly animals which might have offered some companionship or comfort.  "Alone!"  None would deny it, but a person does not have to spend a long arctic night in a little hut near the pole to know what it is to experience feelings of isolation and loneliness.
