Why do explorers put themselves in dangerous situations? And, once the worst possible situation occurs, how do they find the resources to survive? In answering these questions, Benedict Allen weaves a series of tales from Cortez, Scott, Shackleton, Stanley, Livingstone and their modern counterparts: Joe Simpson and Ranulph Fiennes.
