Ernest Shackleton attempted to cross Antarctica in 1914 but his ship was caught in the ice and sunk. His attempt to save his 28 men resulted in one of the most amazing open boat journeys ever. Throughout his ordeal Shackleton had to make life and death decisions on behalf of his men. Graham tells this ripping yarn and allows his audience to decide what they would do at each point.
