{"product_id":"shackletons-boat-journey","title":"Shackleton's Boat Journey","description":"\"One of the great survival stories of all time.\" ―Library Journal\n\nThe astounding and inspiring true story behind the Wolfgang Petersen film Endurance: the firsthand account of an incredible Antarctic adventure.\nFrank A. Worsley was the captain of the H.M.S. Endurance, the ship used by the legendary explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton in his 1914-16 expedition to the Antarctic. On its way to the Antarctic continent the Endurance became trapped and then crushed by ice, and the ship's party of twenty-eight drifted on an ice floe for five months. Finally reaching an uninhabited island, Shackleton, Worsley, and four others sailed eight hundred miles in a small boat to the island of South Georgia, an astounding feat of navigation and courage. All hands survived this ill-fated expedition; as Worsley writes, \"By self-sacrifice and throwing his own life into the balance, [Shackleton] saved every one of his men…although at times it had looked unlikely that one could be saved.\" Illustrations\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0393318648\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.0393318648.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Worsley, Frank Arthur\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
