"Good story. Absolutely amazing what this group of sailors had to deal with, and how they survived. Writing wasn't immediately gripping, and is certainly dated (references to "noble savages" and the like)."
"My favourite account of the Endurance expedition - the photos contained within this book are amazing - written by Shackleton's captain. His navigational abilities are amazing, especially as you read about the harrowing journey in a lifeboat from Elephant Island to South Georgia."
"Human kindness, courtesy and cheerfulness are so important every day, but especially with those with whom we are in daily contact and facing extremely challenging situations. Ernest Shakleton was an extraordinary leader with a equally able skipper. I may not have read this book except that my son kept checking out the children's version of this polar adventure, entitled, Trapped by Ice."
