Emperors of the ice [a true story of disaster and survival in the Antarctic, 1910-13]
In 1909, every continent had been thoroughly explored, except one. That September, Captain Robert F. Scott announced a new scientific expedition that would put Antarctica firmly on the map at last and claim the South Pole for Great Britain. Twenty-three-year-old Apsley Cherry-Garrard was asked to join. With no special skills, and terrible eyesight, he seemed a surprising choice.
