In the name of wild : one family, five years, ten countries, and a new vision of wildness / Phillip and April Vannini ; with Autumn Vannini.

Vannini, Phillip, (author.). Vannini, April, (author.). Vannini, Autumn, (author.).

Summary:

"Five continents. Ten countries. Twenty Natural World Heritage sites in five years. In the Name of Wild is the story of what happened when one family set out to learn what wildness means to people around the world. What draws us to seek out wild places? Do they mean the same to everyone? Part travelogue, part ethnography, this book takes us on a journey into the lives of the people who call places such as Tasmania, Patagonia, and Iceland home. They reveal that wildness isn't about the absence of people. It's about connections, kinship, and coexistence with the land."-- Provided by publisher.
