OF MIGHT AND ICE: ERNEST SHACKLETON ~ THE GREATEST LEADERSHIP AND SURVIVAL STORY OF ALL TIME

Immerse yourself in an enthralling world as we uncover the riveting narrative of Ernest Shackleton as he began his Antarctic exploration career alongside Scott, onboard Discovery.

In 1907-1909 off Nimrod, engaging cavalier methods of motor sledges, Siberian ponies, dogs and man-hauling sleds, Shackleton’s party chartered a route up the Beardmore Glacier and got to within 97 miles / 150 km of the South Pole.

Amundsen was first to the South Pole.

Shackleton then decided to attempt a crossing of Antarctica from west to east via the South Pole. In January 1915 his ship Endurance was trapped in the ice of the Weddell Sea, and eventually crushed.

This left 28 men and 57 dogs afloat on the sea ice. What followed is considered the greatest survival story of the modern age.
