Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage by Alfred Lansing
Goodreads Blurb: In August 1914, polar explorer Ernest Shackleton boarded the Endurance and set sail for Antarctica, where he planned to cross the last uncharted continent on foot. In January 1915, after battling its way through a thousand miles of pack ice and only a day’s sail short of its destination, the Endurance became locked in an island of ice. Thus began the legendary ordeal of Shackleton and his crew of twenty-seven men. When their ship was finally crushed between two ice floes, they attempted a near-impossible journey over 850 miles of the South Atlantic’s heaviest seas to the closest outpost of civilization.
Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Goodreads Review: Thank Goodness this has a relatively happy ending otherwise it would absolutely be the most miserable thing I’ve ever read.
