A Gun for a Fountain Pen: Antarctic Journal, November 1910 - January 1912 by George Murray Levick

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent. Uncut paper with tri-fold cover.

2012 marked the centenary of Robert Falcon Scott and his British Antarctic Expedition reaching the South Pole and his eventual death along with the rest of his Southern Party on the ill-fated Terra Nova expedition from 1910-1913.

The personal accounts of those who accompanied Scott on the Terra Nova expedition offer insight into their daily lives and the extraordinary world they lived in. George Murray Levick's journal from November 1910 to January 1912 demonstrates the courage and endurance of these men as they faced unthinkable obstacles.

Part of the Kerry Stokes Collection, this is the first publication of Levick's diary and includes photographs and sketches.
