‘Sir Ernest Shackleton and his crew make today’s hightech adventurers look like dilettantes. Their interminable voyage across frozen land and open sea is one of the most harrowing survival stories of all time.’ Sebastian Junger, author of the bestselling The Perfect Storm.
In 1914 Sir Ernest Shackleton and a crew of 27 men set sail for the South Atlantic on board the Endurance. The object of the expedition was to cross the Antarctic overland. In October 1915, still half a continent away from their intended base, the ship was trapped, then crushed in ice. For seventeen months Shackleton and his men, drifting on ice packs and then on the stormiest seas on the globe, were castaways in this most savage region of the world.
Frank Hurley, the photographer of the expedition, documented their struggles, miraculously saving his negatives and photographs from destruction at each stage of their journey. His photographs illustrate the dramatic, terrible beauty of the lands with which they were contending. They also provide an unsurpassable insight into the extraordinary spirit of Shackleton and his crew, and their extraordinary indefatigability and lasting civility towards one another in the most adverse conditions.
Lansing’s gripping narrative, based on firsthand accounts of crew members and interviews with survivors, vividly describes how the men lived together in camps on the ice until they reached land, how they were attacked by sea leopards, ate sea lion and polar bear, developed frostbite (an operation to amputate the foot of one member of the crew was carried out on the ice), and finally embarked on a 850-mile voyage in a 22-foot open lifeboat to find help.
An American journalist who wrote for Collier's, among other magazines and was later an editor for Time, Inc. Books.

Later he attended North Park College, 1946-48, Northwestern University, 1948-50.
Lansing became a member of the Scott Polar Research Institute, Cambridge, England in 1957.

評分书评: 为了所谓的探险,杀了那么多动物~~人真的是为所欲为,就因为是所谓的高级动物~呵呵 因为身份、地位、时代都相差甚远,但我依然不觉得应该实施这场冒险,至少在当时的情况下。 就文学性来说,这本书的写作方式略显粗糙,甚至有点流水账,在书中的确经历过很多次的险象环...
評分非常非常棒的一次阅读经历,任何言辞字句都表达不出这份感动和敬佩。 之所以称为“阅读经历”,是因为真的仿佛亲历,一次次探险、希望、绝处逢生都如此真实和惊险,每一块冰川、裂缝、风浪都在眼前铺开。 但所有的险途都不需要再添渲染,这些航海日记和海员记忆本身就是最刺激...
評分文/吴情 奥地利作家斯蒂芬·茨威格的《人类群星闪耀时》,不少中国读者想必十分熟悉。这本书中,有一篇讲述了英国人斯科特与瑞典人阿蒙森争夺南极点科考第一的故事,尽管最终失败了,但读者仍不免为斯科特的执着精神唏嘘感叹。南极科考,从来不是一件容易的事,一方面,极地的...
