Item description from seller

A first edition, first printing of 'South' published by Heinemann in 1919. A very good book with a little fading to the titles on the spine. Corners rubbed and a little fraying to the head of the spine and corners. One neat name twice to prelims. Some light marks to the front board. Some reinforcement tape repairs to the fold-out map and to board gutters. All plates present. Complete with the Heinemann advertising postcard. A gripping account of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition (1914–1917), led by Shackleton. The book details the incredible survival story of Shackleton and his crew after their ship, the *Endurance*, was trapped and crushed by Antarctic ice. Stranded in one of the harshest environments on Earth, Shackleton led a daring open-boat journey to seek rescue, ultimately saving all 28 men without loss of life. Blending adventure, leadership, and resilience, 'South' is a powerful testament to human endurance, courage, and the unbreakable will to survive against overwhelming odds.…
