Shackleton’s Antarctic voyage aboard ENDURANCE is one of the most extraordinary tales of heroism and determination in the history of exploration. Lansing draws on the journals of the crew: their nobility of purpose, their disagreements, their determination, their irrepressible cheer, and their admiration for and unwavering belief in their commander. Simon Prebble gives each a unique voice, from Cockney to Scot. He ambles engagingly through the calmer moments of the narrative and grabs the listener by the lapels when the going gets rough, as it did more times than the ordinary person would be able to endure. Even if you know the story well, Prebble’s narration will bring to life the despair, elation, and sheer will of these men to survive, and to triumph, together. M.S.W.
