PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Ranulph Fiennes is the only man alive ever to have travelled around the Earth's circumpolar surface (more people have been on the Moon!). His record-breaking expeditions include travel by riverboat, hovercraft, man-haul sledge, skidoo, Land Rover and skis. He is also the bestselling author of titles such as Mad Dogs and Englishmen, Mad, Bad and Dangerous to Know, and the biography Captain Scott.
Praise for Ranulph Fiennes * - * Fiennes' own experiences certainly allow him to write vividly and with empathy of the hell that the men went through. * The Sunday Times * A valuable corrective to the trend of Scott debunking...One by one, and with the commendable attention to detail, Fiennes explodes the accumulated myths. * Sunday Telegraph * THE definitive book on my hero Shackleton and no one could have done it better. The Boss would have heartily approved of such an authentic account by one of the few men who truly knows what it's like to challenge Antarctica. * Lorraine Kelly * Sir Ranulph Fiennes has done Captain Scott's memory some service...he has certainly written a more dispassionate and balanced account than Huntford ever set out to do. -- Simon Courtauld * Spectator * Full of awe-inspiring details of hardship, resolve and weather that defies belief, told by someone of unique authority. No one is more tailor-made to tell [this] story than Sir Ranulph Fiennes * Newsday *
