Thomas Orde-Lees Ski Expert and Storekeeper
A captain in the Royal Marines, Orde-Lees was in charge of the motor-sledges
that would have helped carry Shackleton's team across the continent. A
graduate of the English public-school system, he was a bit of a prima donna and
generally disliked, though his diary is one of the more perceptive kept by
Shackleton's crew.
