About

Lionized by the British public as the embodiment of selfless heroism and chivalry, Captain Scott's achievements in the field of exploration have spawned countless books. But in all the pages written about him the personality behind the legend has been distorted beyond all recognition. 

 David Crane's fresh and exciting biography redresses this imbalance by allowing Scott's voice to echo through its pages. Whether describing the monumental landscape of Antarctica in all its fatal, icy beauty, or giving an account of the challenges he faced in his personal life through his heartfelt letters and diaries, Scott emerges from this definitive biography as an extraordinary figure, a superlative leader of men in possibly the harshest environment on the planet.
