À propos de cet audio

A Book for Connoisseurs of Wild Places of the EarthAn Epic Memoir of an Intrepid Solo Adventurer, a Woman Who Lived by the Philosophy "Go Simple, Go Solo, Go Now"

Go Simple, Go Solo, Go Now

In 1958, while flying from one island to another, Audrey Sutherland sees the remote and roadless northeast side of Molokai, with its spectacular sea cliffs and waterfalls. Always an adventurer, she decides that she must find a way to explore this then inaccessible area. After much study, she determines that the best way for her to navigate these treacherous sea walls is to swim while towing an inflatable kayak. This is the story of fulfilling her dream, of planning then implementing, of launching and advancing, of retreating and reconnoitering, of challenge and success. This is the story of the trip that convinced her that personal growth comes when one goes simple, goes solo, goes now.

My daughter recently asked, “Why are all the explorers men?” I told her about Audrey Sutherland, who I heard speak at an outdoor conference in Maine and who was expert at exploring wild places solo. I gave my daughter Sutherland’s book and I revisited her incredible adventures on Audible. I think she deserves a higher profile in adventure lit.

Hooray for women explorers
