![]() Lost Men, The Harrowing Saga of Shackleton's Ross Sea Expedition Kelly Tyler-Lewis EXPLORATION 2007 PAPER 416 PAGES
Kelly Tyler's dramatic account of Shackleton's other party, the men who were to await him on the other side of Antarctica, benefits hugely from new research. She scored big: rooting through newly opened archives; turning up long lost diaries and logs; talking to the families of the men; visiting many of the places where events transpired (she even managed a flight to the Beardmore Glacier); and, most remarkably, found actual movie footage of the expedition. From this rich source material, she fashions a riveting tale of the 10 men stranded at Cape Evans, as compelling a story as that of the Endurance.
