An exhilarating collection of letters and stories from the world-renowned Explorers Club, featuring firsthand accounts of crossing boundaries and making history over the past century
For centuries, explorers from all over the globe have traveled the far reaches of what the world has to offer, helping us expand the map, learn about other cultures, and move the needle of human knowledge. But an explorers work isnt finished when they reach a new destination or make a discovery; they need to somehow tell the tale.
Letters from the Edge compiles letters, email exchanges, and field journals from explorers who have joined the esteemed and longstanding organization The Explorers Club. They share their thoughts as they stood at the edge of their research, risking life and tempting death as they penned their dispatches from afar; enduring the proximity of active lava-spewing volcanos in Australia; suffering starvation and isolation in the harsh tundra of the Arctic; rescuing trapped kids in hazardous caves in Thailand; plunging into the depths of the North Atlantic Ocean to excavate the history of the Titanic; communicating with the other side of the galaxy; and so much more, all to quench the insatiable curiosity of humanityand still, humanity strives to discover more.
Using the source material and interviews with the explorers, Letters from the Edge offers a path to understanding the edge of our knowledge, and ultimately, to understanding ourselves.
