The rescue party which set out in search of Captain Scott's ill-fated expedition to the South Pole at the end of that terrible Antarctic winter of 1912 eventually discovered a small tent sticking out of the snow. Inside were the frozen bodies of Scott, Bowers and Wilson.
Diaries revealed that the Norwegian explorer Amundsen had beaten them in their quest to be first at the South Pole. The scrawled pages told of an ordeal which although it ended in tragedy was to pass into history as an epic story of courage and endurance.
Much is known about Scott, but who was this ' other man in the tent.' Edward Wilson , who was said to be 'a first-class scientist, first-class artist, first-class Christian, first-class gentleman, and as near perfect as a man may be.'
Why did the expedition which started with such high hopes end so disastrously? Sixty years after the event, modern research has come up with new answers. with NIGEL GRAHAM , ROBIN BROWNI JOHN SAMSON , TERRY SCULLY
