Shackleton's account of the Nimrod expedition, his first quest for South Pole. It's a riveting account of the expedition, where he famously turned back 97 miles short of his goal rather than press on and risk not having the food or time to make it back to the hut at Cape Royds. With maps and photographs. A facsimile of the 1909 edition.  (ANT92, $16.95)
