Özet

As war clouds darkened over Europe in 1914, a party led by Sir Ernest Shackleton set out to make the first crossing of the entire Antarctic continent via the Pole. But their initial optimism was short-lived as ice floes closed around their ship, gradually crushing it and marooning twenty-eight men on the polar ice. Alone in the world's most unforgiving environment, Shackleton and his team began a brutal quest for survival. And as the story of their journey across treacherous seas and a wilderness of glaciers and snow fields unfolds, the scale of their courage and heroism becomes movingly clear.

I listened to this with very little foreknowledge of the outcome. So the tale kept me on the edge of my seat as to what would happen.
The account is a fascinating view of different times, attitudes, technologies, knowledge of the world, and above all the unforgiving conditions at the Antarctic.
This is in the form of a diary, but very well written, that reads just like a novel. The narrator is perfectly suited and could be Shackleton himself.
What sticks with me is the incredible conditions endured (without giving too much away) so if you are into explorers, overcoming adversity, survival, seafaring tales, and old fashioned british empire stories then this could well be for you.
I loved it and was gripped throughout.
It certainly makes you realise what easy lives we have in comparison!

Astounding tale of the journey of these men.

An account of a scarily real expedition. Some parts weren’t as exciting as others, describing some monotony / uneventfulness in the days and listing store items, causing me to tune out at times. It did describe the environment well, enabling you to visualise how it must of felt. I also leant quite a bit from the book such as navigation, sailing terms, ways to protect self in harsh environments, and geography. Overall, I enjoyed this book, but not one I would repeatedly listen to. i'd recommend this to anyone who likes survival stories.

Good
