Loved this biography of Captain Robert Falcon Scott. I had already read The Worst Journey in the World, by one of the members of Scott's second Antarctic expedition, so I knew some of the story, but I knew almost nothing about Scott's earlier life. His story is endlessly fascinating, and I marvel at the men who traveled to the Antarctic and managed to live and work there.

Next-best thing to actually standing in front of the paintings, this is the catalog of the National Portrait Gallery's wonderful Regency collection, on tour in America in 2002. Succinct and interesting written portraits by David Crane complement the beautiful color reproductions of the art. Richard Holmes provides a fun, panoramic introduction.
