Ep. 5 - Isobel P. Williams - The Heroes Of Polar Exploration

Isobel P. Williams is an author and historian of polar explorers such as Captain Scott and Earnest Shackleton. Isobel is writing her fourth book about the brave arctic explorers of the early 1900’s. We cover topics such as: why men would join these polar expeditions, the duty and sacrifice that was involved, why Captain Scott’s expedition was doomed to fail, his rivalry with Earnest Shackleton and Amundson, why no one ever talks about William Spears Bruce, and much more.  Buckle up, it's a wild ride.
