description: South: the story of Shackleton's last expedition 1914-1917 By Sir Ernest Shackleton South! The Story of Shackleton's Last Expedition 1914-1917 is the factual blow-by-blow narrative of the ill-fated polar expedition of the Endurance from the mouth of the Captain, Sir Ernest Shackleton himself. Part adventure tale, part story of survival, the British explorer's detailed journal is one of the most gripping tales of heroism and survival in the face of almost certain death to have ever been told. We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public.
