The last hero : Bill Tilman : a biography of the explorer

Madge, Tim1995
Books
Bill Tilman was part of the Himalayan climbing partnership with Eric Shipton, and later developed a new name for himself as the idiosyncratic skipper of the Bristol pilot cutter "Mischief". Fittingly, he was lost at sea in Antarctic waters in his 80th year. This book traces his life and career.
