The book is great so far. I don't know anything about the 1914 Antarctic Expedition so the information I'm reading is all fairly new to me. I find it amazing how calm they all were!

The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is an excellent book. You should read And Then There Were None if you haven't already done so. Fantastic book.
