"The story relates in words and photographs the epic
Polar journey [The British Antarctic Expedition of 1910-13]
undertaken by Scott and his crew. The untimely death of Scott
and some crew members on the return journey had a dramatic
and profound effect on the British mindset of the day. Scott's
endeavours has guaranteed him a place in British history.

Herbert Pointing was part of the expedition and for that we are
very fortunate, as he has left an enduring record both in words
and photographs of life in that unforgettable and unforgiving
wilderness of ice and snow."
