Minor wear only; near fine in like dustwrapper now professionally protected by superior non-adhesive polypropylene film. Postage quoted is for a standard format octavo book. Final charges may vary depending on size and weight. "Oceanographic committees now commonly refer to vessels as 'research platforms'. Indeed, some do resemble cluttered railway platforms and inspire as much affection. The role which a ship can have in inspiring the scientists who sail in her seems to have been forgotten. This meticulously researched book about one of the most famous of research vessels is a timely reminder to management of the not altogether unimportant role of ethos in science, and of the key role that Antarctic logistics play in enabling science. The Discovery, a steam barque, was built massively in wood expressly for Scott's first venture to the Antarctic by Dundee shipbuilders experienced in providing vessels for polar work. She served both as the logistical work-horse and as winter quarters for the expedition. After this she was bought by the Hudson's Bay Company for use in the Arctic fur trade and with a war-time interlude in which she sailed south again in an aborted attempt to rescue Shackleton's men on Elephant Island, flew its flag until 1922." The ship was then used for oceanographic research. "Her last voyage south was with the Antarctic Research Expedition under Sir Douglas Mawson. After a spell berthed in the Thames as a training ship for Sea Scouts she was transferred back to Dundee where she now rests in honoured retirement. With this splendid book, which was awarded a Special Merit Prize from the King George's Fund for Sailors, Ann Savours has put Antarctic and maritime enthusiasts in her debt, not least for the fine collection of rarely seen illustrations which it presents." - G.E. Fogg.
