À propos de cet audio
Shackleton's gripping account of his incredible voyage follows him and his men across 600 miles of unstable ice floes to a barren rock called Elephant Island. It records how, with a crew of four, he crossed 850 miles of the worst seas in a 22-foot-long open boat and how, after landing on South Georgia Island, they then had to traverse over 20 miles of mountainous terrain to reach the nearest outpost of civilization. Shackleton recounts, too, the efforts of his support party aboard the Aurora, who in temperatures of -50 degrees and winds of 80 m.p.h. still managed to drop off supplies on the opposite side of the continent, little suspecting the fate of the Endurance and the ordeal of its crew.
An astonishing story that explores the limits of unparalleled human courage, Shackleton's South ranks among history's greatest adventures.

The Antarctic- A Living Hell
What Sir Ernest Shackleton and his men endured is incredible. Unimaginable cold, short rations, tsunami sized waves and treacherous journies in open boats. Everything was against the chances of even ONE of these men surviving. Yet, while listening to Shackleton's words, I felt there could be no other outcome. The incredible leadership skills demonstrated by Shackleton keep the reader thinking, "How could he have done that?" and, "Could I have been that strong mentally, emotionally and physically)?" This book makes one feel as though one is aboard the Endurance, the iceflows, the James Caird and ultimately alongside Shackleton and his men, during their hike across South Georgia Island. I'm about to start listening again, I enjoyed it that much! Het Sor Kenneth Branagh to narrate a version and I will buy it, too!!

Epic
The epic tale of Shackleton’s quest to trek across Antarctica, and all that went wrong when his ship, the Endurance, became trapped in ice, broke up and sank, leaving Shackleton and his men trapped on ice. The fact that they came back alive was remarkable and his leadership and determination are to be admired. Was pretty fast paced and engaging for the first 2/3 of the book. The last 1/3 was a bit anticlimactic, as it told the tale of the crew of the supply ship Aurora, and I found my mind drifting, despite the challenges they faced. Overall, a great book. Excellent experience to hear the story written by Shackleton himself.
