About the Event
Registering for this event assists us in planning the seating.
Shackleton is more than a man renowned for surviving his ship being crushed by the ice. I’ve done his boat journey four times, walked part way across South Georgia and ventured into the Weddell Sea, and consequently feel more for the man than just a remote hero from the past and how different he was from his contemporary Captain Scott.
