    I maybe gone sometime. 107 years certainly qualifies. Reminds you of the utter bravery of these men.

      He was of both ancestories, his paternal side was English and maternal side Irish.

    But has England decided if the ship is a she or a they them & has shakelton been Villainised for not having diversity classes on the ice.

      I'm sure Afrocentrists will say he was a black man in 100 years, actually maybe even now 🤷🏼‍♂️. Same of Trump, Farage, and many others in the future.

      Every member of the crew survived, except the only female, on-board; they shot her (the Ship's Cat)!
      I'm so glad that this story continues to be taught in Primary Schools, it's an incredible example of all the admirable qualities: courage, resilience and caring for others!

      The racism and sexism of these explorers should mean we rewrite history so no future generations learn of this hate.

      That’s not the impression I got from reading Tom Crean’s biography. He was devoted to Shackleton and held him in high regard as a leader.

      So incompetent that he got every one of his men back alive. I expect you'd be too busy fretting over pronouns and trigger warnings.
