Endurance

Endurance              
 By Riley Fleck

   The book Endurance is interesting, a little scary, and exciting, This is why I always want to keep reading it.
   Ernest Shackleton and his group try to cross Antarctica,, but their ship gets stuck in the ice and falls apart. After they get out of their ship,they’re stuck on a dangerous frozen ocean and all they have is tents, dog pemmican, and small boats.The ocean melts and now their stuck in boats and getting whipped around by currents and winds. Even if they make to Elephant Island or Clarence Island what will they do?
   The author of this book wants the reader to know that you’re not going to get anywhere if you give up, you have to find a way to do it. In Endurance, if the group just gave up they would die.
I really enjoy this book because it’s nonfiction and it’s very long so you have a lot to read! I would tell anyone to read this book if they like history.
