Hello Frank
It appears that the list isn't comprehensive, or perhaps Worsley had his own bookshelf. Where is Nordenskjold's Antarctica? Where is the Nautical Almanac (presumably the British version)?
Would you mind clarifying the term "took departure from Camp Wild" as it appears in logs? I vaguely recall that this may mean the observation is out to sea when the landmark is still visible (and therefore not taken on shore at Camp Wild), yet I cannot find your now years old reference. Would you mind reiterating that point?
Brad

Speaking of Nordenskjold's books... I don't know if this has come up in the recent discussions:
What books were taken to the Antarctic 100 years ago? (from BBC News, one year ago, less ten days).Frank Reed
