The Worst Journey in the World is probably the most majestic and impressive travel book I have ever read (even if I did get a bit bored with all the penguins and geology in the middle). If you are interested in Cherry, the man, then there is also a fine biography of one of the most intriguing men to ever haul a sled in Antarctica. (If you own a child, or have a child as a relative or neighbour, or if you feel kind enough to donate a copy to the local school, you can order my new book, Great Adventurers, here - https://amzn.to/2lPRXHx (or here if you are not in the UK - https://goo.gl/Egzo6m)). #GreatAdventurers
