Endurance: 700 Days of Survival in the Pole (translated Documentary)
About This Novel
The extreme of environment, the extreme of belief, the extreme of life, can you survive it? 700 Days of ice and sea, the greatest Antarctic adventure story of the 20th century! The order to abandon ship was issued at 5 p. M. However, for most of the crew, it was no longer necessary, because everyone knew that the ship was completely ruined and it was time to abandon it. No one showed fear or even worry. They had been fighting non-stop for three days, but in the end they failed. One person disagrees with the general feeling of relief after escaping a shipwreck. His name was Sir Ernest Shackleton, and it was he who led the British Empire's expedition across Antarctica. This day is October 27, 1915. The name of the expedition ship is "Endurance". The current coordinates are 69.5 Degrees south latitude and 51.3 Degrees west longitude, deep in the mysterious Weddell Sea ice sheet in Antarctica, just between the South Pole and the nearest human settlement, which is 1,200 miles away. No one outside knew they were in trouble. At that time, they had no radio transmitters. In 1903, on this small island, the crew of the Swedish ship "Antarctica", which was hit by the ice of the Weddell Sea, spent the entire winter. The ship was eventually rescued, and during the evacuation the crew left the ship's supplies on Paulette Island in case of any future shipwrecks. Interestingly, it was Shackleton who was ordered to purchase these supplies, and now, twelve years later, this was exactly what he needed most.
