Endurance: 28 Men Trapped in Antarctica and the Survival Plan Behind the Legend
On 5 December 1914, the ship Endurance left South Georgia and entered the Weddell Sea. Ernest Shackleton, 27 crew members, and 69 sled dogs were on board. They planned to land on the Antarctic coast, cross the continent on foot, pass the South Pole, and reach the Ross Sea. The First World War had already begun in Europe, yet the British government allowed the expedition to continue.
