He was a Scout, picked out of thousands to sail with Shackleton, and the Boss died on the way. Marr was one of two boys taken on the Quest expedition in 1921, and his account follows the voyage south, the shock of Shackleton's death in South Georgia, and the season that carried on without him. The end of the heroic age, seen by its youngest witness.
