It's a survival story almost too incredible to believe, but it's the extraordinary true tale of endurance in the harshest environment on earth. Sir Ernest Shackleton and a crew of 27 men set off from England aboard the ship Endurance, intending to cross Antarctica from one side to the other. Instead, Endurance becomes icebound and sinks 100 miles from land, leaving Shackleton and his men to fight brutal perils on ice, land, and sea...or die trying. Through it all, Shackleton's mission never wavers: "But if you're a leader, a fellow that other fellows look to, you've got to keep going." Narrator Taylor Mali transports the listener into the heart of this death-defying adventure.©1998 by Jennifer Armstrong (P)1996 Brent Thompson; 16 9; 2000 Audio Bookshelf Historia Exploración y Descubrimiento Antarctica Exploration

The narrator covers the story of Shackleton's exploration. It is genuinely one of the best stories of human determination.

This is one of the best biographies of factual history I have ever listened to. Well worth listening to over and over again!

Fantastic

I have read this book to my middle school students for 3 years. Now it was my turn to listen. The tale is so extraordinary that even the 4th time through it continues to fascinate me. Be sure to see the pictures in the printed copy. They add a lot to the story. Its too bad you don't get them with the audio version somehow.

Always Fascinating

I loved this book. I finished it in one sitting. I could not stop until the end.

While this is hardly a comprehensive account of the expedition ("Endurance" by Alfred Lansing is excellent in this regard, with much more detail and depth), I really prefer this telling -- very epic and cinematic.

My only criticism is the narration paled a bit in comparison to the narrative itself, but with material this inspiring that is a tall order -- and, frankly, I was so enrapt that I didn't even notice most of the time.

Gripping and relentless
