Discover inspiring stories of heroism, adventure, endurance and survival from throughout history. <BR><BR>Captain Robert Falcon Scott didn't start out life as a hero. In fact, as a boy he was considered small, frail and shy. So what was it that turned this ordinary man into a legend?<BR><BR> Through his gripping account of how this modest naval officer became Scott of the Antarctic, Neil Oliver vividly relates the awe-inspiring tales of brave men that inspired Britain's greatest hero, including Nelson, Sir John Moore, and the Demons of Camerone. <BR><BR>And alongside these epic stories of courage, fortitude and sacrifice, Oliver recounts how the spirit of Scott lives on - from Neil Armstrong and the Apollo 13 mission, to the SAS and the Battle of Mirbat. <BR><BR>Young and old alike will enjoy reading these brave stories of men who understood - as Scott always did - that it was more important to die a hero than live a coward's life.<BR>________<BR><BR> 'A joy from start to finish' Sunday Telegraph<BR><BR>'A great book . . . I shall treasure it' Sir Ranulph Fiennes<BR><BR>'A must-have collection' The Times
