*But how will history view Roald Amundsen? he wonders to himself. Will I be remembered for my dedication, my discipline, my daring deeds? Or only for my deception?*

Roald Amundsen—hero or villain? Amundsen's South Polar conquest is an extraordinary tale that combines risk, intrigue, and personal conflict. A man of striking intelligence and a single-minded thirst for world records, Amundsen's astute planning and shrewd strategy propelled him into first place. Such a man, with everything to lose, will stop at nothing to secure his goal. His story is a testament to utter brilliance and ruthlessness. From the author of the highly acclaimed *Into the White* , and full of life-threatening challenges, deception, disappointments, and triumph, *Amundsen's Way* is an adventure story in the purest sense.
