Shackletons legendary expedition sought to traverse Antarctica, navigating from the Weddell Sea to the Ross Sea, with a daring path through the Pole. Setting sail from London on August 1, 1914, the crew faced insurmountable challenges when they reached the Weddell Sea on January 10, 1915, only to be trapped by relentless pack ice that ultimately crushed the Endurance on October 27, 1915. Stranded on Elephant Island, the 28 crew members fought against the odds, and in a remarkable feat of courage, Shackleton and five others braved the treacherous seas to reach South Georgia. Against the backdrop of the Antarctic winter, Shackleton heroically rescued all of his stranded crew on August 30, 1916, using the Chilean navys tug Yelcho. As a unique conclusion to this gripping narrative, we include a rare original recording by Ernest Shackleton recounting his earlier 1907 Nimrod expedition.]]></description><atom:link href="https://www.spreaker.com/show/6714043/episodes/feed" rel="self" type="application/rss+xml"/><language>en</language><category>History</category><copyright>Copyright Biographies 2.0</copyright><image><url>https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/77ec5adbed1da9fe417249aea117774e.jpg</url><title>South!
