The Greatest Adventure Story Ever Told
Lavishly illustrated with Frank Hurley's spectacular photos of the 1914 Shackleton expedition to Antarctica, this deluxe edition chronicles "one of the most harrowing survival stories of all time" (Sebastian Junger, author of "The Perfect Storm"). A forthcoming IMAX movie will be followed by a major studio feature film. 84 photos throughout.Ernest Shackleton defined heroism in 1915 when his ship, the Endurance, was trapped in ice and then destroyed on its way to Antarctica. This tense week-by-week, month-by-month reconstruction charts the incredible journey undertaken by his crew of 27 men through 850 miles of the southern Atlantic's heaviest seas. |
