Description:Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview: #1 The order to abandon ship was given at 5 P. M. For most of the men, however, no order was needed because by then everybody knew that the ship was done and that it was time to give up trying to save her. They accepted their defeat almost apathetically. #2 The dogteam drivers had made a canvas chute down to the ice alongside the ship. They took the fortynine huskies from their kennels and slid each one down to other men waiting below. The whole scene was one of calm, but far away to the south, a gale was blowing toward them. #3 As the ship continued to struggle, the men could hear ice breaking off and hitting the ship’s side. It looked like some giant vise was being applied to the ship and was slowly tightening until she could no longer hold out against its pressure. #4 The ice pierced the Endurance’s sides within an hour of the last man being off the ship. The ship was listing heavily to the side, and the entire starboard side of the deckhouse had been crushed by the ice with such force that some empty gasoline cans had been pushed through the deckhouse wall.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
