Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. A very clean unread copy with some light tanning. A literary retelling of the final, desperate phase of the great Antarctic expeditions of the early twentieth century. Caesar weaves together the stories of Robert Falcon Scott and Douglas Mawson, focusing on the human cost, the emotional strain and the harsh, indifferent landscape that shaped their journeys. Rather than writing a straightforward history, he blends documented events with imaginative reconstruction to explore what drove these men into such extreme environments and how they coped when everything began to unravel.
