This biography of the great explorer was drawn on fresh material at the time. The author was the first to have been given access to the private correspondence and journals of members of Scott's family. New light is cast on Scott's early years (like many other explorers, he began as a weak-chested and shy child, to become a strong and charismatic leader), his leasdership, his place in London (and particularly Bohemian) society, and his expeditions.
