Carefully unwrapped to check for flaws, of which none have been noted. Commemorating the centenary of Ernest Shackleton’s death, The Folio Society brings together ‘The Heart of the Antarctic’ and ‘South’ – thrilling accounts of his greatest polar expeditions in his own words. Published together for the first time, Ernest Shackleton’s two polar memoirs are gripping accounts of adventure at the very limit of human endurance. ‘The Heart of the Antarctic’ (1909) and ‘South’ (1919) tell the story of the Nimrod and Endurance expeditions – both of which fell short of their goal, but saw Shackleton defy overwhelming odds to save his men from catastrophe and bring them home. This commemorative three-volume set includes the complete texts from the first editions, alongside fine reproductions of the original photographs, drawings, panoramas and maps. The explorer’s granddaughter, Alexandra Shackleton, has contributed a new introduction exclusively for the Folio Society. ‘The Heart of the Antarctic’ is in 2 volumes, bound in dark blue cloth blocked in silver and with images screen-printed in silver ink. Set in Century and printed on Abbey Pure paper, there are176 pages in total including hundreds of integrated images and photographs plus 14 colour plates. Panoramas and 3 maps presented in a separate envelope. ‘South’ is printed and bound in matching format with 416 pages plus 57 plates of full-page photographs and 12 integrated full-page drawings and photographs. 1 map presented in a pocket in the binding case. All 3 volumes have silver page tops and measure 9¾” x 6¾’. Housed in an elegant cloth-covered slipcase, lined with paper printed in silver with an image of the Endurance, ‘Shackleton’s Antarctica’ is the perfect tribute to the greatest British leader from the Heroic Age of Antarctic Exploration.
