Why read it?
1 author picked Scott's Last Journey as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
One of the things that made Scott’s expedition legendary was the photographs. His was the first scientific expedition to include a professional photographer on staff. Herbert Ponting used the cameras and glass plates of his time, and the images are stupendous. This book reproduces all the great ones, images that renovated the human imagination and which you can see to this day imitated in movies and special effects.
From Brenda's list on British explorers freezing to death in Antarctica.
