The Coldest Place on Earth: 400 Headwords by Tim Vicary (Paperback, 2000). This sale is for one copy of the book. The story details the heroic and tragic voyage of Captain Scott in his attempt to become the first man to reach the South Pole. It is intended for learners of English, who would find the original too difficult, or for classroom activity or for adults who do not have the time to read the much longer original book, but would like to have an idea of the story and possibly be able to help their children by discussing it together. I have several of these “classic novels“ available. Please see my other listings. (Some also have accompanying CDs.). Thank you.

About this product

Product Information

In the summer of 1910, a race began. A race to be the first man at the South Pole, in Antarctica. Robert Falcon Scott, an Englishman, left London in his ship, the Terra Nova , and began the long journey south. Five days later, another ship also began to travel south, carrying Roald Amundsen, a Norwegian. But Antarctica is the coldest place on earth, and it is a long, hard journey over the ice to the South Pole. Some of the travellers never returned to their homes again. This is the story of Scott and Amundsen, and of one of the most famous and dangerous races in history.
