Description
Sir Ranulph Fiennes offers a unique perspective on the ill-fated expedition led by Robert Falcon Scott. As someone who has visited the poles numerous times, Fiennes defends Scott's actions and presents convincing arguments based on his own experiences.
The author marshals evidence from his own journeys to challenge common perceptions of Scott's leadership and the events that unfolded during the Terra Nova Expedition. A thought-provoking account that sheds new light on a pivotal moment in Antarctic exploration history.
