A Pimlico original which tells for the first time a breathtaking story of Antarctic survival and of the man who made it possible.
Katherine Lambert has worked as a magazine editor and then a book editor and producer. Currently managing editor of the annual Good Gardens Guide, she also worked with Peter King on Scott's Last Journey.Journalist Peter King's 35 books include Scott's Last Journey and an edition of Shackleton's South (Pimlico).
Hell with a Capital H is a wonderful book and the result of
painstaking research. Katherine Lambert has produced a
well-balanced analysis of Scott and of many of his expediiton team.
The main focus of her gripping story centres on the horrendous
tribulations of the isolated Northern Party. Better than any of the
many Scott biographies I have read, this book brings out the real
characters of the participants and the interplay between them as
they dally in their icy and all but fatal Hell.
