Brocklehurst Looking Down From... Mount Erebus, 1908, (1909)
Brocklehurst Looking Down From A Point 9000 Feet Up Mount Erebus. The Clouds Lie Below, and Cape Royds Can Be Seen, 1908, (1909). Philip Brocklehurst was a member of the expedition which achieved the first ascent of Mount Erebus, Antarcticas second highest volcano. Anglo-Irish explorer Ernest Shackleton (1874-1922) made three expeditions to the Antarctic. During the second expedition, 1907-1909, he and three companions established a new record, Farthest South latitude at 88° S, only 97 geographical miles (112 statute miles, or 180 km) from the South Pole, the largest advance to the pole in exploration history. Members of his team also climbed Mount Erebus, the most active volcano in the Antarctic. Shackleton was knighted by King Edward VII for these achievements. He died during his third and last oceanographic and sub-antarctic expedition, aged 47. Illustration from The Heart of the Antarctic, Vol. I, by E. H. Shackleton, C.V.O.
