Sir Ernest Shackleton was one of the greatest explorers and leaders of men in the 20th century. From 1914 to 1916 follwoing the wreck of his ship 'Endurance' and despite finding himself stranded 1200 miles from any form of communication and with no hope of rescue, he led all 27 of his men to safety. After spending several months on the pack ice living on seals, dogs and penguins, they embarked on an heroic 800 mile trip across the frigid South Atlantic in little more than a rowing boat. The authors of 'Shackleton's Way' have come together to present the explorer's timeless leadership skills skills that can be learned by anyone of any generation.
