As their research drove the scientists ever farther into regions barely explored by humans for millenniaif everGlassley encountered wondrous creatures and natural phenomena that gave him unexpected insight into the origins of myth, the virtues and boundaries of science, and the importance of seeking the wilderness within.An invitation to experience a breathtaking place and the fascinating science behind its creation, A Wilder Time is nature writing at its best.
