This is one story I never tired of reading. Brannagh's film is excellent.

The most incredible story I've ever read. It's really amazing how they survived! I strongly recommend the book to all of those who are interested in adventure, leadership, nature e bravery!

@runnerrobb Well, as much as I LOVED Shackleton's book, South, its also important to realise that Ernest Shackleton had serious problems with alcohol and was the equivalent of about three million dollars in debt when he died. He was an awesome leader in an exploration context but had many failed business ventures. He was full of flaws like all of us, which is perhaps what makes his efforts from Elephant Island to South Georgia Island even more amazing.

@transonicbuoy1 Yes of course you're right. There are such strong links between the two countries :) (sorry if I've double posted - I'm not very good at this!)

@MrsFeeny Anglo-Irish, born in Ireland, a bit like the great Wellington. Shackleton was British-educated, and trained in British maritime methods. Irish blood, English heart, as the song goes.

@transonicbuoy1 Shackleton was Irish

Britain itself is quite remarkable.

Shackleton was a great inspirational and natural leader. He new instinctively the limits of his team and of himself. A true hero of Antarctica and exploration.
