In 1914, Sir Ernest Shackleton announced a new adventure---an ambitious overland trek from the Atlantic to the Pacific oceans via the South Pole. The trip became an incredible account of decisive leadership in the face of unbelievable adversity. Shackleton's original words are illustrated with a wide selection of photographs taken by Frank Hurley, who acceompanied Shackleton, and paintings by another expedition member, George Marston.
