Title: Lovely photographs, superb text
Product review: It is not very often that a history book can combine thorough research and superb photography to bring to life a truly heroic struggle. "The Endurance" achieves just that. The unimaginable hardship and the cruel beauty of the south pole literally jumps off the page and transports the reader.In addition, the book is successful in presenting Shackleton's expedition as a triumph despite the fact that it did not achieve its scientific goals. Without any doubt, this is the definitive account of the last and most heroic expedition of the age of discovery.
