Ernest Shackleton led two Antarctic expeditions, and died

shortly after the beginning of the third. His first expedition was

not a total success (they did not reach the South Pole), and the

second was, in some senses, a total failure (they never reached the

Antarctic mainland at all). Yet it is the second for which he is

remembered. His expedition ship Endurance was trapped, then crushed

in the ice, before his party could be landed, leaving his men in a

hopeless situation. For months Shackleton held his party together

before taking to boats and bringing everyone to safety to Elephant

Island. His open-boat journey to South Georgia, and the eventual

rescue of the party left behind, are now legendary. Visitors to

Shackleton s grave in South Georgia, stepping over the lounging

elephant seals that keep the dead company, pay homage to the man

who had the vision, bravery and strength to open up Antarctica for

all who followed. Shackleton showed the flame of leadership as few

in the history of exploration have done, and nowhere does this come

through more clearly than in the two accounts in this volume.
