Henry “Birdie” Bowers realised his life`s ambition when he was selected for Captain Scott`s Terra Nova expedition to the Antarctic, yet he also met his death on the return journey from the South Pole in 1912.
This new biography, drawing on Bowers` correspondence and journals, previously unpublished material and original research, sheds new light on Bowers and tells the full story of the hardy young naval officer who could always be relied on to lift his companions spirits.
