Resumen del Editor
Shackleton's gripping account of his incredible voyage follows him and his men across 600 miles of unstable ice floes to a barren rock called Elephant Island. It records how, with a crew of four, he crossed 850 miles of the worst seas in a 22-foot-long open boat and how, after landing on South Georgia Island, they then had to traverse over 20 miles of mountainous terrain to reach the nearest outpost of civilization. Shackleton recounts, too, the efforts of his support party aboard the Aurora, who in temperatures of -50 degrees and winds of 80 m.p.h. still managed to drop off supplies on the opposite side of the continent, little suspecting the fate of the Endurance and the ordeal of its crew.
An astonishing story that explores the limits of unparalleled human courage, Shackleton's South ranks among history's greatest adventures.

In the 1870s, newspaperman James Gordon Bennett of the New York Herald drummed up excitement and publicity for his paper through highly publicized missions of exploration. In 1879, Bennett's idea for a voyage was his most audacious to date: the North Pole. To do this, he hired a team of naval veterans in addition to a smattering of civilians with specialized knowledge in meteorology, whaling, and naturalism. The men on board the Jeannette set off in September of 1879. This would be the last time anyone saw them for two years.

In the late nineteenth century, people were obsessed by one of the last unmapped areas of the globe: The North Pole. No one knew what existed beyond the fortress of ice rimming the northern oceans. On July 8, 1879, the USS Jeannette set sail from San Francisco to cheering crowds in the grip of "Arctic Fever." The ship sailed into uncharted seas, but soon was trapped in pack ice. Two years into the harrowing voyage, the hull was breached. Amid the rush of water and the shrieks of breaking wooden boards, the crew abandoned the ship.

In July 1881, Lt. A. W. Greely and his crew of 24 scientists and explorers were bound for the last region unmarked on global maps. Their goal: Farthest North. What would follow was one of the most extraordinary and terrible voyages ever made. Greely and his men confronted every possible challenge - vicious wolves, sub-zero temperatures, and months of total darkness - as they set about exploring one of the most remote, unrelenting environments on the planet. In May 1882, they broke the 300-year-old record, and returned to camp to eagerly await the resupply ship. Only nothing came.

In the summer of 1913, the wooden-hulled brigantine Karluk departed Canada for the Arctic Ocean. At the helm was Captain Bob Bartlett, considered the world’s greatest living ice navigator. The expedition’s visionary leader was a flamboyant impresario named Vilhjalmur Stefansson hungry for fame. Just six weeks after the Karluk departed, giant ice floes closed in around her. As the ship became icebound, Stefansson disembarked with five companions and struck out on what he claimed was a 10-day caribou hunting trip. Most on board would never see him again.

His destination was the uncharted end of the earth: the icy continent of Antarctica. But de Gerlache’s plans to be first to the magnetic South Pole would swiftly go awry. After a series of costly setbacks, the commandant faced two bad options: turn back in defeat and spare his men the devastating Antarctic winter, or recklessly chase fame by sailing deeper into the freezing waters.

Iver Iversen was a mechanic who joined Mikkelsen in Iceland when the expedition’s boat needed repair.

On November 21, 1914, after sailing more than ten thousand miles from Norway to the Antarctic Ocean, the Endurance finally succumbed to the surrounding ice. Ernest Shackleton and his crew had navigated the 144-foot, three-masted wooden vessel to Antarctica to become the first to cross the barren continent, but early season pack ice trapped them in place offshore. They watched in silence as the ship’s stern rose twenty feet in the air and disappeared into the frigid sea, then spent six harrowing months marooned on the ice in its wake.

Historia
As war clouds darkened over Europe in 1914, a party led by Sir Ernest Shackleton set out to make the first crossing of the entire Antarctic continent via the Pole. But their initial optimism was short-lived as ice floes closed around their ship, gradually crushing it and marooning twenty-eight men on the polar ice. Alone in the world's most unforgiving environment, Shackleton and his team began a brutal quest for survival.

Historia
On 8 August 1914, five days after the outbreak of World War One, the Endurance, a wooden-hulled, coal-fired icebreaker, set sail for the South Pole, in a bid to complete the first-ever trans-Antarctic expedition, which would cross the continent from the Weddell Sea to Scott's base at Cape Evans, via the Pole. However, despite the best planning, the ship succumbs to the ice floes of the Weddell Sea, and is subjected to months of uncontrollable drifting before its crew makes a scramble for Elephant Island, where they battle constant cold and starvation.

Historia
On November 21, 1914, after sailing more than ten thousand miles from Norway to the Antarctic Ocean, the Endurance finally succumbed to the surrounding ice. Ernest Shackleton and his crew had navigated the 144-foot, three-masted wooden vessel to Antarctica to become the first to cross the barren continent, but early season pack ice trapped them in place offshore. They watched in silence as the ship’s stern rose twenty feet in the air and disappeared into the frigid sea, then spent six harrowing months marooned on the ice in its wake.

You'll be awe-inspired by the heroic efforts of the crew of the Endurance, a ship that battled its way for six weeks through thousands of miles of pack ice while ironically only a day's sail from its destination.

Survival in the South
South is a remarkable story of survival under conditions where I wouldn’t have thought survival was possible. From enormous ship crushing ice flows, to starvation and scurvy, to sailing across the open ocean in a modest rowboat, these explorers fought the elements in extreme isolation without help for 2 years and scarcely lost a man!

unimaginable!
THIS is my 3rd accounting of the Endurance I have read/ watched/ heard. I had by far the most insight into the adventure. I listened to this when it was 90 degrees outside and the telling is so vivid I could literally FEEL the cold and WET.

Fantastic, but...
An incredible journey and poetic in its matter-of-fact retelling. The narration is a bit stilted and unnatural, though. Not the worst narration, but definitely lacking. I got used to it, or perhaps, numb to it. So, it didn’t detract from the story itself too much.

Stirring Account
The story is absolutely amazing. I read the book years ago, and now listened to the audible book twice. It is well worth the time I’ve spent on it. What an admirable leader Ernest Shackleton was.

Gripping, moving, brilliant story
I listened to this one in the car on my way to and from work each day. As the end approached, I would sit in my car and listen - I couldn't bring myself to turn off the player. I even cried, twice. I never cry.

Leadership
“South” is one of the greatest examples of leadership as told by that leader. Narration is good also. If you are aspiring to be a leader or a better leader this is a must listen.

Great for its age. We're for read if you want to hear what happened after.
Just like all books ranged before the last century. The book is rambling and without much narrative flow. Yet the story is so epic. That's totally rei read the endurance And I really want to hear what happened after. If you read endurance I suggest reading the last chapter It gives a summary of where did all the characters go.

Very detailed, recommend The Endurance though
I listened to this after finishing The Endurance, that has a more rounded tale from multiple points of view. This book has a second part that tells of the journey of the Aurora, and it’s all very interesting. But the first part is the more successful with no loss of crewmen, and the second part that details the less successful part of the south expedition even ends with war records for the poor guys that went from one nightmare to another. Overall The Endurance was a book that left me impressed by the power of human will and South was a book that made me sad by the sacrifices demanded in exploration.

Great Story but chewy to get through at times
If you want to know all of the details of Shackleton’s survival than look no further. It’s a very technical read, not the best “storytelling” in terms of entertainment but a truly remarkable and interesting story.

Incredible
The story is so riveting. The fortitude shown by these explorers seems super-human. It’s even more amazing when you realize it takes place over a hundred years ago…
Well done Gents.
