In the Antarctic summer of 2008-2009, Raeside travelled to Antarctica to retrace his grandfather’s footsteps and to gain perspective on an adventure of a century ago that challenged men’s courage, strength and sanity. This transports the reader to the very time and place of Scott’s expedition through the eyes of Charles Wright, whose diaries and notes were handed down to Raeside.
