Dealer Notes

Renard 450; Rosove 96.A1; not in Spence. Described by Renard as “by far the rarest of all the primary accounts from the ‘heroic period’ of Antarctic exploration”, Doorly’s account escaped the attention of the bibliographer Spence. It relates the two voyages made by the S. Y. Morning, under the command of William Colbeck, to the relief of Scott’s first expedition (1901-4), with E. R. G. R. Evans as second officer and Doorly as third.
