- Synopsis
- Rasmus (founding editor-in-chief, National Geographic Adventure magazine) presents a collection of 25 of the best nonfiction stories from the first decade of Adventure magazine. Written by 20 well-known, prize-winning American journalists, war correspondents, travel writers, naturalists, and novelists, the stories describe experiences from all parts of the globe and in all types of situations, from Sebastian Junger's opening account of a trip to Afghanistan to interview guerilla leader Ahmad Shah Massoud, to Philip Caputo's experience tracking Kenya's man-eating Tsavo lions, Scott Anderson's tale of a coming-of-age road trip across Europe and Asia, and Gretel Ehrlich's story of the nomadic reindeer herders in northwestern Russia.
