The Discovery dust wrapper is price-clipped; the Terra Nova dust wrapper is unclipped.

They are both illustrated with wonderful reproductions of Wilson's drawings and paintings, many in colour. Held as one of the great figures of the heroic age of Antarctic exploration, Edward Wilson served as both zoologist and doctor on Scott's Antarctic Expeditions, including on the Terra Nova from 1910; tragically, he was one of the doomed members of the party, dying in his tent alongside Scott. He was considered Scott's closest confidante on the trip. The set comprises: Diary of the 'Discovery' Expedition to the Antarctic Regions 1901-1904 (1966). Edited from the original manuscript in the Scott Polar Research Institute, Cambridge, by Ann Savours, with a foreword by the Duke of Edinburgh.
