Scott's Last Expedition

Published to mark the 100th anniversary of his last expedition.

Robert Scott’s final journey to the South Pole has been called one of history’s greatest tales of adventure, and in his journals this extraordinary mission is recorded in vivid detail; readers are carried with Scott and his companions until the final entry on 29th March 1912. Scott’s writing is a harrowing narration of an expedition filled with drama and cruel disappointment. In his conversational entries there is fascinating insight into the character of an icon of courage and adventure.
