On 21 November 1915, the Endurance, Ernest Shackleton's ship, finally succumbed to the immense pressures of the surrounding ice. Its crew watched in silence as the stern rose twenty feet in the air and then, just like that, it was gone. Over a century later, an audacious plan to locate the ship was hatched. It would finally succeed in March 2022, to headlines all over the world.

As one of the world's foremost experts on the Endurance, Bound includes previously untold stories of Shackleton's epic survival and fascinating details about his iconic ship. Complete with numerous photos from the original expedition in 1914-17, as well as from the wreck on the seafloor, this book is the perfect gift for armchair explorers everywhere.
