Roald Amundsen - Part 1 - Early life and the Belgica Expedition

In part one of our series, we look at the early life of Norwegian polar explorer Roald Amundsen. We then take him on his first great adventure - that as the third in command of the Belgica Expedition - the first expedition of the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration. It will be a harrowing experience - but prepare Amundsen for bigger things.
