Shackleton was one of the greatest leaders of men ever. What an epic of survival under the harshest conditions on earth...and not one man lost.
I’m surpised they found his ship, in 10,000 feet of water, as it had been crushed into kindling by the Antarctic ice pack.
Shackleton was a man who knew how to bring out the best in men and prided himself on being an extremely good judge of character. His men loved him and trusted him. I loved reading “Endurance.” Mind boggling hardship and perseverance.
