Scott's last expedition ...

Vol. I. Being the Journals of Captain R. F. Scott, R. N., C. V. O. Vol II. Being the reports of the journeys and the scientific work undertaken by Dr. E. A. Wilson and the surviving members of the expedition, arranged by Leonard Huxley; with a preface by Sir Clements R. Markham ...

Wilson, 18 coloured plates (16 from drawings by Dr. Wilson), 260 full page and smaller illustrations from photographs taken by Herbert C. Ponting and other members of the expedition, panoramas and maps ...

In November 1910, the vessel Terra Nova left New Zealand carrying an international team of explorers led by Robert Falcon Scott, an Englishman determined to be the first man to reach the South Pole. Scott kept a detailed journal of his adventures until March 29, 1912, when he and the few remaining members of his team met their ends in a brutal blizzard.

The daily progress of the expedition toward the pole is recorded in an immensely vivid and personal narrative, depicting the beauty of the Antarctic tundra, the harsh living conditions, and Scott's own desperation to beat rival explorers to the pole.

Excerpts

The first three weeks of November have gone with such a rush that I have neglected my diary and can only patch it up from memory.
