    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

    A reissue of the original 1920 account of Shackleton's expedition to Antarctica.

    • Author: Ernest Henry Shackleton
    • Softcover; 376 pages; black-and-white photographs
    • The Lyons Press; copyright 2008

    In August, 1914, 28 men aboard the ship Endurance began what was to be the ''last of the great explorations''—the crossing of the vast Antarctic land mass. It turned into one of the most remarkable survival stories ever recorded.

    In this reissue of the original 1920 edition, Sir Ernest Shackleton, the legendary leader of the expedition, eloquently describes their fabled 2 year odyssey in one of the most inhospitable regions on Earth—the devastating crushing of the Endurance in a sea of ice, the crew's impossible journey over the barren, frozen wasteland of the Antarctic, their navigation across nearly a thousand miles of tumultuous seas in an open boat, and their ever-constant struggles against unimaginable cold, hunger, hardship, and despair as they struggled toward rescue.

    Filled with more than 85 photographs and illustrations from the journey, Shackleton's account is a distinctive tale of high adventure. It is also a lasting testament to his leadership and courage, as well as a moving statement about the human will to survive.

    Made in USA.
