Mawson: And the Ice Men of the Heroic Age: Scott, Shackleton and Amundsen by Peter FitzSimons

3.0

This is not my usual genre, but was lent to me by a friend. The story of the race for the South Pole, is laid out in all its exciting and at times, tragic glory. Not for the fainthearted (and don't read while eating), it is the astonishing story of Scott, Shackleton, Amundsen and Mawson and their push for the South Pole and scientific discovery.
