    “Book Descriptions: Commander Worsley's epic account of Antarctic adventure is complete for the first time in this book. The story of how the men of endurance, which sank crushed by ice in south latitude 69, made their way and three small boats through the scattering floes to Elephant Island, has never before been told. It was from this island that Shackleton, Worsley and for others embarked on a journey that belongs for all time to the history of these seas, bringing the open boat James Caird through squall and hurricane to South Georgia. There they tramped across the thin ice and snow and rocky heights of the almost unknown interior tool whaling station, from which they set out to rescue the men they had left behind. Few could read the story of these triumphant exploits by land and sea without a stirring of the blood.”
