Cold Hands, Warm Heart
£12.99
Tess Burrows
Foreword by Sir Ranulph Fiennes
‘The spirit of adventure doesn’t get much tougher than this’ Ben Fogle
Isolated and terrifyingly cold, the South Pole is every adventurer’s dream and every adventurer’s nightmare.
In a bid to carry messages of peace to speak out at the Pole to help the harmony of the Earth, Tess and her partner Pete venture to the very end of the world. They compete with the likes of Olympic champion James Cracknell and Ben Fogle in the first race to the South Pole since Scott and Amundsen.
To complete this mission they have to battle severe medical problems, lack of money, hardship and deprivation. For Tess it’s more than combatting cold hands with a warm heart; it’s also a journey to push out the reaches of the human mind.
‘These pages offer inspiration to put in the extra mile’ Sir Ranulph Fiennes
‘Tess Burrows’ astonishing courage and humour make this terrifying journey a joy to follow’ Joanna Lumley
