The race to reach the South Pole is a compelling tale of courage and hardship. Begun by the Ancient Greeks, its history climaxed 2,000 years later with the ultimate triumph and tragedy of Amundsen and Scott, separated by a matter of weeks. Discover the role played by an ancient obelisk in early exploration, learn how the frozen land repulsed the advances of great explorers like Captain Cook and explore how the Antarctic continent was finally discovered by chance.
