Seller's Description:
Very Good Condition in Very Good jacket. 1st Edition; 264 pages, maps on end papers, illustrated, 29 colour, 48 b/w photographs, 2 maps. Original covers in unclipped dust jacket. Shelf wear, some minor spotting to page edges, contents clean. Ernest Shackleton is still by many considered the greatest of all British polar explorers: A hero to generations of British men and women. Christopher Ralling here throws light on the character and actions of this remarkable man through a chronological selection from Shackleton's own writings, public and private. Much of the material comes from his own books, The Heart of the Antarctic and South, both long out of print, which recount the triumphs and disasters of the Nimrod and Endurance expeditions with the freshness and immediacy of the diaries on which they were largely based. Together with his poetry and letters, especially those to his wife, Emily, they build up to the lively self-portrait of a many-sided, complex and fascinating man. This is the first UK edition.
