Thought Antarctica was only for the tough and the strong-willed? Turns out it was also for the dumb and luckless as well. Discover the great Heroic Era of Antarctica Exploration and the extreme measures some explorers went to be first at something. Anything! Who was the first to spend an unplanned winter in Antarctica? Who was the first to play bagpipes there? Did Ernest Shackleton's brother really get arrested for stealing the Irish Crown jewels? What did Amundsen leave in the tent at the South Pole for Robert Falcon Scott? This book details the greats and the not-so greats, looking at the truly Horrible and Heroic History of Antarctic Exploration.
Dr Craig Cormick OAM is an award-winning author and science communicator. He has travelled to Antarctica several times and written several books and articles about it including a study on nudity in Antarctica (two words that don't go well together). He enjoys playing with history just about as much as history enjoys playing with him!
