The last of four parts by CHRISTOPHER RALLING
Cape Horn - or South Georgia?
December 1916: After the loss of Endurance, Shackleton and his 27 men endeavour to cross the frozen Weddell Sea. Land lies 350 miles away, and as they drift helplessly northwards they know that soon the ice will break beneath them.
