In July 1914, Shackleton and his 28-man crew (including Hurley) sailed from England for Antarctica, hoping to be the first explorers to cross the continent. However, 80 miles from land, the Endurance became locked in impenetrable pack ice. For the next nine months, the crew desperately tried to cut "leads," and batter through to open water. Hurley's glorious images show the ghostly Endurance landlocked in unremitting white ice, as far as the eye can see. In August of 1915, the crew and their 70 sleigh dogs were forced to abandon the Endurance as the pressure of the ice began crushing the ship. The crew was able to row to Elephant Island, where 22 remained, while Shackleton and five others attempted the desperate 800-mile voyage to inhabited South Georgia Island. Miraculously, all of the men survived the two-year ordeal, and Hurley was able to save 150 of his 400 glass plate negatives and all of his film reels to provide this dazzling documentation of the Endurance's harrowing experience. 655 4 Documentary films 260 United Kingdom, |c1919. 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |991412FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yDVD-ROM 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_1476_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9146817FL |bFL |d2019-03-20 |l0 |oFL Record 1476 |pHU_OSA_00003115.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2019-03-20 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 0X52KnYx 966 True |bHU_OSA_00003115 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
