作者簡介
Sir Ranulph Fiennes was the first man to reach both Poles on land, and he is the only person to have been awarded two clasps to the Polar Medal for both Antarctic and Arctic regions. In 1993, Fiennes was awarded the Order of the British Empire (OBE) for "human endeavor and charitable services." He is the author of many books, including his autobiography, Living Dangerously, and Mind Over Matter, a harrowing account of his Antarctic expedition. Most recently, he set a world record by running seven marathons in seven days on seven continents. He lives in Somerset, England.
