Captain Scott's infamous expedition to the Antarctic and the South Pole, retold in stunning images by Disney animator, Sarah Airriess. Produced in collaboration with the Scott Polar Research Institute, Cambridge, The Worst Journey in the World's original tale was written by one of the youngest members of Scott's infamous expedition to the South Pole. Apsley Cherry-Garrard has all the idealism and excitement of a young man on the adventure of a lifetime. As things start to go wrong, he finds himself drawn to the centre of events, and burdened with responsibility far beyond his years. A painful loss of innocence is the axis on which the story turns, but it's ultimately about the power of friendship, the value of curiosity, and the extremes to which people go for the sake of an idea.  To celebrate the Scott Institute's centennial, Sarah Airriess transform's Cherry's tome into cinematic visuals, keeping as true as possible to the facts while bringing out the emotional core of the story, to open up a classic book to new audiences.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49750910107921,"sku":"NGR9781739959937","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50116652826897,"sku":"GOR012880234","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51330373255441,"sku":"CIN1739959930VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53392628351249,"sku":"GOR013357568","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1739959930.jpg?v=1751121500"},{"product_id":"worst-journey-in-the-world-volume-1-making-our-easting-down-book-sarah-airriess-9781638991373","title":"The Worst Journey in the World, Volume 1: Making Our Easting Down","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eEisner Award Nomination: Best Adaptation from Another Medium\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIgnatz Award Nomination: Outstanding Artist \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"A sweeping, majestic saga.\" -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\"An engaging, robust, and exciting adaptation of a true story.\" -- BOOKLIST\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\"Stunning and dynamic illustrations .\" -- FOREWORD REVIEWS\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eA graphic novel adaption of the history masterpiece ranked #1 on National Geographic's list of the 100 Greatest Adventure Books of All Time.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBefore the Pole . . .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBefore Antarctica . . .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBefore everything went wrong . . .\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIt's June 1910, and Cherry, inexperienced and unqualified, has just joined Captain Scott's new expedition to the South Pole. Simply getting to Antarctica turns out to be an adventure.

The Worst Journey in the World humanised the epic tragedy with its sensitive observations of the men involved and evocative descriptions of Antarctic life. A century later, this classic of travel literature has been adapted into a series of graphic novels by Disney veteran Sarah Airriess, who has spent over a decade researching the expedition in order to tell the story completely and faithfully. The personalities of the men, and the science they undertook, are equally as important to understanding the story as the famous feats of exploration.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53018399539473,"sku":"NGR9781918163124","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781918163124.jpg?v=1768260055"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/en-au\/collections\/author-books-by-sarah-airriess.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
