“Lost in the Antarctic” A book by Tod Olson that talks about The Endurance, with 28 men, took off from England in 1914 to explore Antarctica. Half way through the expedition, The Endurance crashed in ice leaving the crew with no food nor water. How do they survive in these harsh, freezing conditions? Reading through the book, I eventually figured out that one theme is working together often helps people survive and overcome challenging situations
I recommend that you read this book because the suspense parts of the book that makes you want to turn the page until you find out the consequences. The crew found ways to entertain and make themselves destress throughout the adventure; find out how they do this.
After reading, I learned that being selfish would not solve any problems to do with natural phenomenon. Rather than having one person pulling a one ton boat, I would have a group of people. In my eyes, I see these men very tough. I should try to find more books about Man vs Nature and learn how they survive.
