Publisher's Summary

The year was 1915. Equipment and food supplies were totally inadequate. After battling its way for six weeks through thousands of miles of pack ice and located only a day's sail from its destination, the Endurance became locked inside an island of ice. Yet Ernest Shackleton enabled all 27 of his men to survive for over a year on the ice-bound Antarctic seas - leadership without equal. This gripping account is based on contemporaneous diaries and interviews conducted by the author with these exceptional men.

fantastic journey journal

its crazy that the stuff mentioned here actually happened. it's sort of like reading a real life version of the alien or the prometheus movies. you will like this if you enjoy mountain of madness.

of course, the book is not exciting or anything. it's just a journal with stuff that happened. its dreadful but also an insight into human nature and the dangers of nature.
