In 1913, Sir Ernest Shackleton led an expedition to Antarctica. Disaster struck when his famous ship, Endurance, plunged deep into the icy waters of the Weddell Sea. Shackleton led his crew on a dramatic escape across ice and sea in one of the greatest acts of daring the world has ever seen. For over 100 years, the location of this famous ship has been unknown - until now. Including stories and facts from the original mission to Antarctica, Discovering Endurance tracks Shackleton's epic journey and reveals how the famous ship was finally found.
