    • “We had seen God in His splendors…”

      May 21, 2013 by Margot  | No Comments

      Shackleton’s thoughts on the travails of the boat journey and crossing…

      “‘We had suffered, starved and triumphed, groveled down, yet grasped at glory, grown bigger in the bigness of the whole.’ We had seen God in His splendors, heard the text that nature renders. We had reached the naked soul of man.”

      The photo below was taken on May 21, 1916, about twenty-four hours after (from left), Crean, Shackleton and Worsley reached Stromness.

    • “Providence Guided Us…”

      May 19, 2013 by Margot  | No Comments

      On May 19, 1916, Shackleton set out with two companions to do the impossible – cross the jagged peaks and treacherous glaciers of South Georgia.  Their goal was to save the lives of their comrades.  With no map to guide them, against all odds, they did it.  Thirty miles in thirty-six hours.  Here’s how Shackleton summed it up…

      “When I look back at those days I have no doubt, that Providence guided us, not only across those snowfields, but across the storm-white sea that separated Elephant Island from our landing-place on South Georgia.  I know that during that long and racking march of thirty-six hours over the unnamed mountains and glaciers of South Georgia it seemed to me often that we were four, not three.  I said nothing to my companions on the point, but afterwards Worsley said to me, “Boss, I had a curious feeling on the march that there was another person with us.”  Crean confessed to the same idea.  One feels “the dearth of human words, the roughness of mortal speech” in trying to describe things intangible, but a record of our journeys would be incomplete without a reference to a subject very near to our hearts.”
