    Review
    A remarkable book about a remarkable man. Sunday Tribune Michael Smith has written a splendid biography. The Nautical Magazine The epic struggles, heroics and the unbelievable hardships of the voyages are wonderfully told. The Irish Times A must for anyone interested in polar exploration. County Examiner Wonderful Kiplingesque yarn about a great Irishman who didn't have to die to become a hero. Irish Independent --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

    TBH I didn't think it was much of a book. Don't get me wrong, Tom Crean's story is a great one, I just thought the book was badly written.
