Celebrated historian David Wilson tells stories from his latest book about the Terra Nova expedition.
David's new book, Terra Nova Illustrated: Pictures from Captain Scott's Last Antarctic Expedition 1910-1913, is based on over a decade of research. He has a personal connection to the subject as he is the great-nephew of Edward Wilson, the artist who died alongside Captain Scott on their return from the South Pole. Wilson is briefly visiting New Zealand, so this is a rare opportunity to meet him in person and hear the revelations uncovered by his fascinating and dedicated research.
