Description: The Worst Journey in the World is a 1922 memoir by Apsley Cherry-Garrard of Robert Falcon Scott's Terra Nova expedition to the South Pole in 1910–1913. It has earned wide praise for its frank treatment of the difficulties of the expedition, the causes of its disastrous outcome, and the meaning of human suffering under extreme conditions. ---------- Contains: - [Worst Journey in the World: 1/2](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL18027997W) - [Worst Journey in the World: 2/2](https://openlibrary.org/works/OL24569906W)
