I don't even know where to begin other then to say I LOVE IT! It came today. I could not wait to use it. I have 2 small children, 3 dogs and a cat, live in the desert where there is a lot of dirt and wind, it's been rainy and I have a large tile floor. I feel like it is always dirty and I am always having to try and mop. Usually don't get the whole floor done before it's dirty again or a baby needs attention.

What was supposed to be an exploration of the Antarctic turns into a fight for survival for famed explorer Ernest Shackleton and his crew. Trapped in an ice flow, their ship destroyed, forced to live on ice flow, crossing open seas in small boats. For two years they lived in bitter cold and constant dampness. They battled starvation, thirst and illness. Every other day the unpredictable Antarctic weather would descend upon them. Still they battled on in an effort to reach civilization.. Undoubtedly one of the most amazing non-fiction stories I ever read. The writing draws you in, makes you experience the crews' struggles first hand. Find out what it's like to sail a boat through horrid weather when you are dead tired and soaked through the bone. When you read this, you will feel guilty about complaining the next time you drag yourself into work fighting a cold. A stellar example that, even against the most impossible odds, people can still triumph.
