Shackleton's Journey Summary

Shackleton's Journey by William Grill

This special 10th Anniversary Edition brings us a detailed visual narrative of Shackleton's journey to Antarctica, with new bonus material.

Following the bestselling and award winning Shackleton's Journey, this special 10th Anniversary Edition brings you bonus content.

In the last days of the Heroic Age of Exploration, Ernest Shackleton dreamed of crossing the frozen heart of Antarctica, a place of ferocious seas, uncharted mountains and bone-chilling cold. But when his ship, the Endurance became trapped in the deadly grip of the ice, Shackleton's dreams were shattered. Stranded in a cold, white world, and thousands of miles from home, the men of the expedition set out on a desperate trek across the ice in search of rescue.

Shackleton's Journey Reviews

Mr. Grill's manner of illustration lends itself beautifully to the juxtaposition of early-20th-century human ingenuity and the raw, indifferent power of nature. * Wall Street Journal *
A book every house should have. * The Guardian *
This is a book that will appeal to adult art lovers, picture book fans and history buffs (of which, I fall into all three categories), children and adult alike. The book's large format gives ample space for detailed colored pencil illustrations and the perfect pacing for such a fascinating journey. * The Eric Carle Museum *
