Shackleton's Journey 

William Grill 


Shackleton's Journey (Hardback)


Waterstones Says
 
A breathtaking visual representation of Shackleton's fateful expedition to Antarctica, Grill's stunningly illustrated volume includes exploded diagrams of provisions and expressive images of the icebound environment and is perfect reading for both children and adults alike.

Children will love examining the exploded diagrams of the now peculiar provisions taken and the individual drawings of each sled dog and pack horse. This book takes the academic and historical information surrounding the expedition and reinterprets it for a young audience in a way that will capture their imaginations.

William Grill has been awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal for illustration.
