{"product_id":"b006ltno2k","title":"Endurance: An Epic of Polar Adventure","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe legendary tale of Ernest Shackleton's grueling Antarctic expedition, recounted in riveting first-person detail by the captain of HMS Endurance.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n  You seriously mean to tell me that the ship is doomed?  asked Frank Worsley, commander of the Endurance , stuck impassably in Antarctic ice packs.  What the ice gets,  replied Sir Ernest Shackleton, the expedition's unflappable leader,  the ice keeps.  It did not, however, get the ship's twenty-five crew members, all of whom survived an eight-hundred-mile voyage across sea, land, and ice to South Georgia, the nearest inhabited island.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n First published in 1931, Endurance tells the full story of that doomed 1914-16 expedition and incredible rescue, as well as relating Worsley's further adventures fighting U-boats in the Great War, sailing the equally treacherous waters of the Arctic, and making one final (and successful) assault on the South Pole with Shackleton. It is a tale of unrelenting high adventure and a tribute to one of the most inspiring and courageous leaders of men in the history of exploration.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e\n 20 illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANT","offers":[{"title":"Ebook","offer_id":67862728081653,"sku":"YSL5349","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/8774\/8597\/files\/61Lpeu6p4SL._SY1500.jpg?v=1793180154","url":"https:\/\/www.newbooks.store\/products\/b006ltno2k","provider":"NewBooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
