The South Pole

One hundred years ago Roald Amundsen and four fellow Norwegian explorers captured the geographical South Pole. The existence of the pole had been known before, but Amundsen and his combatants were the first humans who had the courage to undertake the dangerous voyage through ice and snow. They reached the pole a one month before Amundsen s great rival Robert Falcon Scott. The eventful and fascinating journey is described by Amundsen himself in his account "The South Pole", published shortly after his return.
