| General note | In 1914, as the shadow of the First World War falls over Europe, a party led by veteran explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton sets out to become the first to traverse the entire Antarctic continent. Their initial optimism is short-lived, however, as the ice field gradually thickens, gripping their ship Enduranceand slowly crushing her, marooning all twenty-eight men on the polar ice. In a breathtaking, seemingly endless struggle against the elements, Shackleton leads his team on a brutal quest for survival in the most unforgiving environment imaginable. Freezing, treacherous seas of gargantuan waves, mountainous glaciers and icebergs, relentless cold and ever-looming starvation all conspire against the team staying alive. This is their extraordinary, epic story, as told by the man who led them. 'Enthralling and deeply moving.' The New York Times |
