The Chap's Guide
On this day in 1912, polar explorer Tom Crean showed super-human character and strength, when he undertook a solo march over 35-miles of hostile Antarctic ice, to save the lives of his fellow explorers - his actions on this day, 113 years ago, have been defined as *'The single most incredible act of bravery in polar history'* - hear all about this inspiring man in my video here: https://youtu.be/QrRjX9fRpG4?si=DiCju...
