'Marshall Outside a Tent, at the Camp from which Shackleton and Wild pressed on to the Ship', c1908, (1909). British explorer Lieutenant Colonel Eric Marshall (1879-1963) was one of the party of four men who reached Furthest South at 88°23'S 162°00'E on 9 January 1909. 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.
