On last week’s newsletter we ran a competition to win a copy of the fantastic new paperback edition of Empire Antarctica: Ice, Silence & Emperor Penguins by Gavin Francis.

We asked: In 1913, Sir Robert Falcon Scott led an ill-fated expedition to the South Pole. Can you name this expedition?

The answer is: Terra Nova

(we got the date wrong as the expedition set sail in 1910 – apologies and thanks to those who pointed that out)

The first three names out of the deerstalker were: Vicky Price, Tom Willis and Ollie Sanders. Congratulations, your books will be with you shortly, and thanks to all those who entered.
