An extremely strong theme in the book was the allure of recognition. Recognition as a motivator has the ability to guide people to continue positive actions as well as lead people towards positive growth. In the case of Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage, the crew's power of human spirit and adventurous purpose, they were able to overcome limitations in some of the harshest environments. However, one could think of the allure of recognition possessing certain drawbacks. The crew knew the expedition would be challenging with a high potential of being put in harm's way. The allure of recognition can drive someone to make irrational decisions and lead an individual to take excessive risks.
