However, in October, they found their ship trapped amidst the South Atlantic's shifting ice floes. Soon the Endurance succumbed to the freezing waters and overpowering ice packs. Left to survive on glacial ice, the men commenced a daring survival mission. Here, Alfred Lansing recounts Sir Ernest Shackleton's brilliant effort to keep his entire crew alive and lead them to safety; "Prebble reads the story with heart-pounding immediacy and gripping emotional force."--Library Journal; "Simon Prebble grabs the listener by the lapels when the going gets rough."--AudioFile UR - http://midwesttapes.com/images/movies/000/000/000/010/187/000000000010187614.gif ER -
