Biographical / Historical

Harmer appears to be referring to the 'Terra Nova' British Antarctic Expedition reports, possibly in relation to Ewart's report concerning the Emperor Penguin eggs brought back from the trip by E.A Wilson, which appeared as an Appendix to Apsley Cherry-Garrard's account of the expedition, The Worst Journey in the World (1922).
