One last adventure, part 8/8

A story about Sir Ernest Shackleton

This is no film, but a short story I wrote a few years back about polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton. It is illustrated in my own drawings, as well as original footage combined with shots from the films "The Endurance" (2000 White Mountain Films), "Shackleton's Antarctic Adventure (2001, White Mountain Films/NOVA) as well as the A&E TV-series "Shackleton" (2002).

The story, set around ship's surgeon Alexander Macklin, is not mainly about the great adventure, but about that which sprung out of it, as Macklin travels back south with Shackleton on the "Quest", remembering the "Endurance" expedition.

Please note that English is not my first language, if any errors may annoy you.
