This first-person narration of the voyage of Endurance has been provided to allow primary pupils to more easily access the expedition’s events.
Find out more about the Endurance22 expedition which located the wreck of Endurance, the lost ship of polar explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, in March 2022.
We have created a suite of resources to accompany each section of this online book. Each section will have an assembly idea and several activities for geography and history and will add further detail as we progress through the story of Shackleton and his men.
