«Atrapados en el hielo» is Caroline Alexander's chronicle of the Shackleton expedition, published by Booket in paperback (320 pages, in Spanish).
In 1914, Ernest Shackleton and his crew set sail to attempt the first crossing of Antarctica on foot, but the ice trapped their ship before they could succeed. Caroline Alexander reconstructs the men's struggle for survival, with photographs taken by Frank Hurley during the expedition.
The original English work, «The Endurance: Shackleton's Legendary Antarctic Expedition», was published in 1998; the edition described here is from 2003.
For lovers of exploration history and survival stories in extreme conditions.
