Shackleton's Whisky (16pt Large Print Edition)

Meer over het boek

The narrative explores Sir Ernest Shackleton's pioneering expeditions to Antarctica, particularly focusing on the 1907 British Antarctic Expedition. It highlights the adventure's unique aspects, including the inclusion of 25 cases of Rare Old Highland Malt Whisky, which were forgotten for over a century beneath Shackleton's hut. The rediscovery of this whisky in 2007 led to a reexamination of Shackleton's legacy and the era of polar exploration, intertwining themes of adventure, survival, and the rich heritage of Scotch whisky.
