Download Ernest Shackleton's Frozen March at the Bottom of the World: History 1-Hour Reads, Book 2 AudioBook Free

This short record audiobook features the story of Ernest Shackleton. He was one of the last of a group of intrepid men from the Golden Era of Breakthrough in the Victorian period. He searched for honor for Great britain and himself in getting into a dangerous quest to lead a team of men to mix the Antarctic continent. His report approaches the outside boundaries of plausibility. Few got his determination. When Ernest Shackleton's ship, Strength, was ruined by South Pole sea glaciers, the crew got to keep on three row boats, camp on glaciers bed sheets, and subsist on sled pups and seal blubber. They were at sea for 497 times until getting on Elephant Island, which was completely deserted and isolated. Shackleton sailed a small lifeboat across 800 a long way of violent sea to South Georgia Island to secure a recovery vessel. He and the four men went back and rescued the 22 men left behind. This audiobook is a range from Off the Edge of the Map: Marco Polo, Captain Make, and 9 Other Travelers and Explorers That Pressed the Restrictions of the Known World.
