Summary
In 1914, explorer Ernest Shackleton embarked on a dangerous journey to Antarctica on his ship named Endurance, where his crew was abandoned on the ice for over a year. They had to sail treacherous seas in tiny lifeboats, hike through uncharted terrain, and eat penguin and seal meat. It’s a remarkable story of survival and determination.
