Book Review of A First Rate Tragedy : Robert Falcon Scott and the Race to the South Pole

A First Rate Tragedy : Robert Falcon Scott and the Race to the South Pole
reviewed on


I read this book only because it was handed to me and I was bored. Normally, I don't like history books but this one was great! I read the whole thing within two days. It covered the history of the Scott expedition accurately but was never dry or dull.
