The harrowing story of Shackleton's survival and rescue of all 27 men aboard is well known, but the ship has lain unseen for a century, 10,000 feet underwater--until now. The vessel remains incredibly intact, as crystal-clear photography and digital scans from the expedition reveal. A thrilling firsthand account of the expedition coauthored by its leader and deputy leader, this is the first and only book to fully document the discovery, produced in full cooperation with the Falklands Maritime Heritage Trust.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJohn Shears\u003c\/b\u003e was the expedition leader for Endurance22, the mission to find \u003ci\u003eEndurance.\u003c\/i\u003e He is a polar geographer and expedition leader with over 30 years' experience of working in both Antarctica and the Arctic.
