| Notes: | Subtitle: Shackleton's Legendary Antarctic Expedition. In 1914, 28 men set out to cross Antarctica. Their ship, the Endurance, was trapped in the ice and crushed. They traveled on foot and by small boat and finally reached civilization. The book includes photographs by Frank Hurley, one of the expedition members (obviously). |
