Epic voyages 40 bc

Epic Voyages 

Robyn Mundy, Nigel Rigby

Epic voyages is a big book with some sailing and some other stories and expeditions in it. Like s the adventure of Sir Ernest Shackleton. It is a very interesting read, It gives you so much information about the adventure. The one I read was Ernest Shackleton's expedition. Ernest shackleton and his crew of about 28 men set of on the 1 of august 1914. They soon found out that they had rough conditions a head. one of the first big problems they came to was a big lot of thick ice. They got stuck in the Ice and basically started to live out on the Ice and they started to make kennels for the dogs out of Ice. They soon started do drift away from where they wanted to go with the flow of the Ice. They soon had to go in little boats so that they used to get out of the flow of the Ice. They were close to dead several times because of pieces of Ice that was bigger than houses.
