The South Pole
South Pole: An Account of the Norwegian Antarctic Expedition in the 'Fram', 1910-12
At the beginning of the twentieth century, the South Pole was the most coveted prize in the fiercely nationalistic modern age of exploration. In the spring of 1911 two separate expeditions left their respective camps in Antarctica in a desperate bid to achieve the glory of being first to reach the South Pole: a British party, led by Captain R. F. Scott, and a Norwegian one under Captain Roald Amundsen. The South Pole - Amundsen's first-hand account of the expedition is a fascinating and highly readable history of the tenacity and perseverance of the age.
