"In 1915, a thousand miles from the South Pole, surrounded by nearly a million square miles of pack ice, twenty-eight desperate men began to haul supplies and personal possessions from their crushed, sinking vessel, the proud ENDURANCE. But in the wasteland around them, the one place left to pitch camp was an ice flow which was itself gradually crumbling away. Nobody else knew the ENDURANCE was in trouble, radio being useless. Sir Ernest Shackleton's' brilliant command of the diverse sailors, scientists, and officers under his command, and his defvotion to the little party he held togerther and led back to the world make ENDURANCE a superb sea adventure. It is also a penetrating study of a great explorer and an incomparable leader of men. " Double-page b/w photo is part of the title pages. 12 pages of b/w photos. (LR-4-D) . .

The Curlytops; 248 pages; You can"t really fail with a book about the Endurance. Although Ernest Shackleton"s attempt to make the first Trans-Antarctic crossing barely made it out of base camp, his expedition has gone into the history books as one of the great epics of polar travel. Endurance left England in August 1914 and reached the pack-ice off Antarctica in January the following year. It sank in November, crushed by the weight of the ice, leaving Shackleton and his 27 men stranded in one of the most desolate areas of the world with no hope of rescue. Undaunted, Shackleton led his team to the edge of the ice, dragging three open life-boats that had been salvaged from the Endurance every step of the way. They then sailed to Elephant Island, a remote uninhabited outcrop of rock, where they lived off penguins and seagull. By April 1916, Shackleton realised there was no chance of them being spotted by a passing ship and he and five men set sail in the open-decked 20-foot boat, the James Caird, across 650 miles of the stormiest seas of the southern oceans for South Georgia. After narrowly surviving being shipwrecked on the reefs surrounding the western coast of South Georgia, Shackleton then proceeded to make the first-ever crossing of the mountainous island before reaching the sanctuary of the whaling station at Stromness. And it was Shackleton, in person, who led the rescue mission to Elephant Island to pick up the rest of his men. Miraculously, all 28 men survived. .
