Endurance: Shackleton’s Legendary Antarctic Expedition and the Fight for Survival

Trapped in the Antarctic ice, crushed by the pressure of the frozen sea, and stranded thousands of miles from safety, the men of the Endurance faced a struggle for survival that became one of the greatest stories in the history of exploration.

Frank Arthur Worsley, captain of the Endurance, tells the story from inside Shackleton’s doomed Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. After the ship was destroyed, the crew camped on drifting ice, crossed treacherous seas in open boats, and finally attempted the desperate voyage from Elephant Island to South Georgia. Worsley’s extraordinary navigation helped turn what should have been a catastrophe into an astonishing rescue.

Written by the man who stood beside Shackleton through the ordeal, Endurance is a vivid firsthand account of courage, leadership, seamanship, endurance, and survival at the edge of the known world.
