This review is from: Mrs. Chippy's Last Expedition (Paperback)
For anyone who is a fan of Antarctic exploration, this book is a must read. It is in the form of the journal of the cat that was taken on Shakleton's 1914 expedition attempting to cross the continent for the first time. Readers of Shakleton's memoir of the ill-fated endeavor in South will be very interested in seeing the same set of events from the view of the cat. The premise is ingenious and the narrative so cleverly done that the reader recognizes what the cat knew and what he didn't. Your heart will cringe for "Mrs. Chippy" when the Endurance becomes stuck in the ice and the crew must leave the ship in order to save their lives.
