In Sir Ranulph Fiennes’s remarkable new book Cold: Extreme Adventures at the Lowest Temperatures on Earth, the infamous explorer looks back on the macabre catalogue of failed attempts to explore the Arctic, the Antarctic, and the highest mountains on earth. The book spans the early voyages of Cook, Shackleton and Franklin, to Sir Ranulph’s own extraordinary feats, including his apprenticeship on the Greenland Ice Cap and his masterminding of the first crossing of the Antarctic during winter.
Cold is a celebration of a life dedicated to exploring the most hostile places on earth. Don’t miss the opportunity to meet this magnetic speaker.
