The Nimrod leaving Lyttelton for the Antarctic
My father, Felix Rooney, and grandfather both sailed with Shackleton on the Nimrod. My grandfather, Felix's stepfather Hugh McGowan, was the 3d Engineer; Felix was a fireman. Highly commended entry for a collection on Shackleton's 1907/8 Antarctic expedition in the 2015 Christchurch City Libraries Photo Hunt by Mary Boyle.
