South by Shackleton is a book written by Sir Ernest Shackleton, detailing his expedition to the South Pole in 1914. The book is a first-hand account of the journey, which was plagued with difficulties from the outset, including the loss of their ship, the Endurance, and the subsequent struggle for survival in the harsh Antarctic environment. Shackleton’s leadership and determination are highlighted throughout the book, as he and his team face extreme weather conditions, starvation, and the constant threat of danger. The book includes photographs taken during the expedition, as well as maps and diagrams to help readers understand the geography of the region. South by Shackleton is a gripping tale of adventure, endurance, and the human spirit, and is a must-read for anyone interested in exploration and the history of polar expeditions.Captain Mackintosh and his party left the `Aurora’ on the evening of January 25. They had nine dogs and one heavily loaded sledge, and started off briskly to the accompaniment of a cheer from their shipmates. The dogs were so eager for exercise after their prolonged confinement aboard the ship that they dashed forward at their best speed, and it was necessary for one man to sit upon the sledge in order to moderate the pace. Mackintosh had hoped to get to Hut Point that night, but luck was against him.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
