Title: Solomon's defense of Captain Scott the most articulate so far
Review: Susan's effort was the first I've read about the Scott expedition. Her insights are most interesting in understanding what those poor men faced in 1911-1912. However, she didn't convince me that Scott was only a poor victim of miserable weather.How can you, on one hand, be viewed as a "scientific officer" and show interest in progress and advancement and, on the other hand, force everybody to travel like cavemen men-hauling when dog-sledging with ski had prooven far more adequate and superior?That non-sense it's so obvious it makes Solomon's case irrelevant.But if you want to somewhat balance Roland Huntford's views and opinions on Scott, this is the book to read.
