From the publisher:
Letters From the Edge compiles letters, email exchanges, field journals, and more from explorers who have joined the esteemed and longstanding organization The Explorers Club.
As they undertook their journeys, sometimes with their lives at risk, they penned their dispatches from afar, sharing their thoughts on enduring 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 humanity.
Founded in 1904 with the mission to serve as a place for congregating the world's foremost explorers for sharing and preserving knowledge, The Explorers Club has inducted 8,000 members into the group—from Sir Edmund Hillary, Sylvia Earle and August Piccard to Jimmy Chin, James Cameron and Rosaly Lopes.
