Description
The Worst Journey in the World, adapted by Sarah Airriess from the book by Apsley Cherry-Garrard.
In 1922, Apsley Cherry-Garrard, one of the youngest members of Captain Scott’s British Antarctic (Terra Nova) Expedition 1910–1913, published his memoir of the expedition. The Worst Journey in the World humanised the epic tragedy with its sensitive observations of the men involved and evocative descriptions of Antarctic life.
A century later, this classic of travel literature is being adapted into a series of graphic novels by Disney veteran Sarah Airriess, who has spent over a decade researching the expedition in order to tell the story completely and faithfully. The personalities of the men, and the science they undertook, are equally as important to understanding the story as the famous feats of exploration.
