Heart of the Hero' gives a compelling insight into the lives of
some of the world’s most famous explorers, through the eyes of
the women who inspired them to achieve great things. Author Kari
Herbert explores the unpredictable, often heartbreaking stories of
seven remarkable women who were indispensable companions, intrepid
travellers and sometimes even the driving force behind our
best-loved polar heroes, such as Scott and Shackleton. Drawing on
her own unique experience as the daughter of a pioneering polar
explorer, and using extracts from previously unpublished historic
journals and letters, Herbert blends deeply personal accounts of
longing, betrayal and hope with tales of peril and adventure.
