cott’s Last Expedition
By Robert Falcon Scott.

Narrated by Steve Gough

Preface and Afterword narrated by Ken Bradley

Music composed and performed by Nadine Reddy.

Captain Scott’s ill-fated journey to the Antarctic Pole in 1911 is part triumph, part tragedy – an epic tale of heroic endeavour which has inspired books and films over the generations.
Despite the simple outline of the story, Scott and his fellow explorers emerge as richly varied characters, brought to life by the diarist’s skill as a story-teller. Scott’s journal reaches its moving and dramatic crescendo when the explorers reach the Pole, only to discover that the Norwegian, Amundsen, has beaten them to it by many weeks.

Scott and his comrades turn back, knowing they face not just defeat but hundreds of miles of the most dangerous terrain known to man. Facing tortuous weather, dwindling food supplies, and that gnawing sense of defeat, Scott writes that ‘all is lost’. Yet history has decided otherwise, for Scott is today far more famous than Amundsen: his triumph secured by the story he lived through and told so eloquently to the world.

Edited and narrated by Steve Gough, this Voices of Today audiobook also features an impressionistic sound design bringing the terrifying landscape of the Antarctic alive to the listener, alongside Scott’s sad story.

Scott’s Last Expedition also includes E.L. Atkinson’s 1913 account of the finding of Scott’s body in the snow, read by Ken Bradley; and music specially composed by Nadine Reddy.
