Scott of the Antarctic di Reginald Pound
Over one hundred years ago is a long time and things have changed since then. In those distant days much was completed through Brut force and resources were much less than today. Scott had an ambition to which he devoted his life, literally. P
837 The Lost Generation of 1914, by Reginald Pound (read 5 Feb 1966) The only note I have on my reading of this book indicates it was read as a follow-up to my reading of The Swordbearers by Corelli Barnett, which book I found intensely interesting. The book on the lost generation as I recall it concentrated on the many of England's most promising young men killed in the War.
I highly recommend "Albert" if you are at the bottom of your reading pile. Droll, repetitious and informational. Reginald Pound has regimentaly stated the facts but didn't bring out the soul of the man (IMHO). That Victoria counted on Albert so much for just about everything was an eye opener for me, as was his particapation in the 1851 exposition with the Crystal Palace.
