The tremendous interest aroused once again in Ernest Shackleton's incredible feat by lansing's Endurance (McGraw-Hill-1959) has given rise to demand for the reissue of Shackleton's own account of his venture. As the last man to undertake the approach to the South Pole with dog sls, this still stands an one of the classics of exploration. This is a reissue of the book originally published in 1920.
