The Greatest Survival Story in Human History.
South by Sir Ernest Shackleton
Genre: Historical Non-Fiction / Survival Epic Originally Published: 1919
In 1914, Sir Ernest Shackleton set sail on the Endurance with a daring goal: to complete the first land crossing of the Antarctic continent. Instead, he and his crew sailed into a frozen nightmare that would test the absolute limits of human physical and mental endurance.
A Sneak Peek into the Ice:
“The ship was groaning and quivering as the ice ground against her sides... and then, slowly, she was crushed. We were left on a piece of floating ice in the deadliest ocean on earth, with no ship, no radio, and no hope of rescue from the outside world.”
About the Book:
Before they could even reach the continent, the Endurance was trapped in the pack ice of the Weddell Sea. For months, the crew drifted helplessly as the ice slowly crushed and swallowed their ship. Stranded on a floating ice floe in the dead of the Antarctic winter, Shackleton's mission shifted from exploration to sheer survival.
What followed is the stuff of legend. Facing starvation, freezing temperatures, and despair, Shackleton led his men across the treacherous ice and launched a desperate, impossible journey. Piloting a tiny, open lifeboat called the James Caird across 800 miles of the most violent ocean in the world, he sought rescue at a remote whaling station on South Georgia Island. Against all odds, every single man under his command survived.
