AbebooksStrand Book Store, ABAA ISBN10: 1401300472, ISBN13: 9781401300470, [publisher: Hyperion] Hardcover Here, for the first time, Fiennes offers an account of Scott's motivations and aspirations for the Pole, and his historic clash with Amundsen over goals and approaches. Just as fascinating, Fiennes highlights the unpredictably disastrous weather patterns that led to the extreme cold the ultimately doomed Scott's return trip. It is in this gripping account that Fiennes's singular understanding of polar exploration is most apparent. Sir Ranulph Fiennes was the first man to reach both Poles on land. He is the author of many books, including his autobiography, 'Living Dangerously,' and 'Mind Over Matter.'
