This is the astonishing visual record of a legendary find: the wreck of Ernest Shackleton’s Endurance, located 10,000 feet below the ice in Antarctica’s Weddell Sea. In the spring of 2022, a polar expedition team made an astonishing discovery: the wreck of Ernest Shackleton’s legendary <Endurance,< 10,000 feet below the surface of the frigid Weddell Sea. Abandoned in 1915 after being stuck in ice, the ship went on to infamy as its captain, Ernest Shackleton, successfully navigated the harrowing survival and rescue of all 27 men aboard. The ship is astonishingly intact, and crystal-clear photography and scans reveal secrets and stories hidden for more than a century. This is the first and only book to fully document the images of this historic expedition and discovery, produced in full cooperation with the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust.
