Captain Robert Folkon Scott (1868-1912) is a great and tragic figure, even by strict standards of severe polar researchers. Not in a figurative, but literally, he put his life on the achievement of the south pole of the Earth. Competing with the expedition of Rual Amundsen, Scott and his comrades reached the pole, found the Norwegian flag there - and died on the way back. Was their victim in vain? The truth is simple: from childhood we are brought up with examples. What examples are more necessary for a person: money -grubbing and conformism - or nobility and feat? The inheritance from Captain Scott was not always grateful to the descendants a high example of the power of the human spirit, but careful and sensitive readers - travel diaries and farewell letters - a book that can not only captivate with exciting descriptions of polar romance, but also touch the heart and soul. Travel diaries and farewell letters of the great pioneer - a will to descendants. A will to which only the words of the poet tennison can be added, carved on the grave of the polar captain: "fight and search, find and not give up."
