This audio documentary put out by American Public Media recounts the incredible true-life tale of how 28 Men survived a ship-wreck in Antarctica for 2 years. Sir Ernest Shackelton and the crew of the Endurance set out exploring on a Trans-Antarctic expedition in 1914. They encountered ice and soon became trapped in it, and their ship the Endurance came apart due to the incredible force of multi-ton ice plates.
Left to survive on bare ice with nothing but seals and penguins for food, this audio document trails how Shackelton's unerring determination led an entire crew through obstacle after obstacle until finally securing rescue on the outer coast of South America. This tale available on streaming audio from American Public Media.
