Présentation de l'éditeur

Scott of the Antarctic's amazing diary of the ill-fated Terra Nova expedition in which he perished along with Edward Wilson, Henry Bowers, Lawrence Oates and Edgar Evans after reaching the South Pole behind Roald Amundsen. Scott's diary has been constantly in print since first publication in 1913 and has sold almost 250,000 copies. However, the original illustrations that accompanied the first edition have long since disappeared from the cheap paperback editions currently available. This new edition reunites for the first time in 100 years the diary with the stunning original photographs of Antarctic and the men of the expedition by Herbert Ponting.

Robert Falcon Scott died from a combination of exhaustion, starvation and extreme cold near the South Pole on 29 March 1912. His body, and those of his comrades, were not found for eight months, his three diaries and several letters were found tucked under his shoulder.
