Title:
Shackleton?s Argonauts : A Saga of the Antarctic Ice-Packs
Hurley, Frank
$45.00

Angus and Robertson, 1979. Dustwrapper has minor wear. First couple of pages inside have been bent, other pages inside nice.

In 1914, Shackleton signed Hurley as photographer for his British Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition. Their ship - the "Endurance" - became trapped in pack ice, After they abandoned the debilitated Endurance, Shackleton ordered the crew members to pare their personal possessions down to two pounds each. Hurley had to leave his precious cameras behind, but Shackleton allowed him to keep a selection of photographs and motion-picture footage. They ended up drifting on pack ice before being marooned on an island and forced to shelter beneath two abandoned whaling boats.
