When Sir Ernest Shackleton's ship Endurance became trapped in the Antarctic ice, all twenty-nine members of the crew were pushed to their limits of survival,including Mrs. Chippy,the ship's estimable cat. Closely based on the true events of Shackleton's heroic journey, and illustrated with authentic photographs taken by Frank Hurley, expedition photographer,this book is a firsthand account of one of the greatest adventures in history-from a unique point of view!
