First line
The tragic story of Captain Robert Falcon Scott and his four teammates reaching the South Pole in early 1912, only to discover that they had been beaten in the race to reach that goal by Roald Amundsen's Norwegian team, and then struggling valiantly to retrace their outward track back to base camp at McMurdo Sound, is one of the canonic sagas in exploration.
