Ford was a steward on the expedition and is notable mainly for being the first man to break his leg skiing in the Antarctic. Upon the Expedition's return Ford acted as Scott's secretary during the leader's lecture tour. Some of his photographs were used by Scott in The Voyages of the 'Discovery'. He moved to New Zealand in 1906 and began to study architecture and later became a partner in one of that country's most prestigious firms. Antarctica was published privately in 1908 and this is a facsimile of his original booklet. Ford, in a letter to a friend in 1963, confirmed that Scott himself gave him permission firstly to lecture in England and then later in Canada and Australia and also to write a book.

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. First edition. 8vo. pp. 31; 13 illusts.; very good in the original pictorial yap wrappers, somewhat age-toned to margins inside of wrappers, creased to margins of wrappers, but overall a very good copy. Ford's account of his time on Scott's Discovery expedition is one of very few publications by an expedition member. Issued as the seventh publication of the New Zealand booklet Series, Ford's work is very uncommon, and seems to have been published as a form of keepsake by the author.

Wrappers are a bit soiled and foxed. Title page a bit soiled as is the inner rear wrapper. 13 black and white illustrations in the text. The text is generally very clean with only minor soiling. A very good copy of a rare item, the only copy we have handled so far. Rosove 131 A1a and Conrad p. 112. Renard 54 and Taurus 44. This very scarce little item was little known until it was reprinted by the Erskine Press in 2015 in a boxed edition with an accompanying booklet and extra reprinted ephemera, (a copy is included with the original publication). Ford was a steward on the National Antarctic Expedition 1901-04. Although short in length, it still is a firsthand account of Scott's Discovery Expedition and published shortly afterwards. The item appears to have been intended as a gift item as there is a dedicated place on the title page to present the item. I assume it also came in some sort of printed envelope. There is a variant binding as well in cream wrappers. Laid in loosely is a short, typed letter from a previous owner.
