Beschreibung
The English polar explorer and traveler Robert Falcon Scott (1868–1912) became famous for his journeys in Antarctica between 1901–1904 and 1910–1913. As is well known, on his last polar expedition, Scott and his four companions tragically perished while returning from the South Pole. The book you hold in your hands seeks to uncover the mysterious cause of Scott's death and that of his companions, while respecting the objective difficulties arising from hunger and cold that the British faced on their return to base at Evans Cove. The author diligently analyzes both of Scott's major diaries, but primarily reveals the enigmatic cause of death for all the participants in this intricate drama. He explores a wide range of motivations behind Scott's activities not in terms of WHY, but rather HOW. The author offers a shocking解读 of the tragedy while paying tribute to all who participated in this great adventure one hundred and three years ago.
