An awful place -- The climb to the Pole -- The end cannot be far -- A topsy-turvy goal -- The South Pole today.
Summary:
"Robert Scott dreamed of being the first person to stand on the South Pole. In 1911, Scott and a team set out on a more than 800-mile trek across Antarctica to reach the Pole. But explorer Roald Amundsen was also heading to the South Pole. This book tells the compelling story of the race to the Pole."-- Publisher's website.
