Now with a new preface and 16 brand-new photographs―for anyone interested in learning more about nature, wherever they are―an utterly original and highly appealing guide hailed by Science News as “a great primer on how the forces of nature affect the landscapes and seascapes that everyone travels through.”
Celebrating 10 years of natural navigation with Tristan Gooley: an update to the guide that started it all―now with a preface and 20 color photos
Before GPS, before the compass, and even before cartography, humankind was navigating. A windswept tree, the depth of a puddle, or a trill of birdsong could point the way home―and they still do, if you know how to look. Whether exploring in the mountains or on a lunch break, anyone with a curious mind can find their bearings. In The Natural Navigator, adventurer and navigation expert Tristan Gooley unlocks the clues hidden all around us: in the sun, moon, stars, clouds, weather patterns, lengthening shadows, changing tides, plant growth, habits of wildlife, and more. This tenth anniversary edition includes a new preface and twenty color photographs from Gooley's archive. A decade later, The Natural Navigator continues to remind us that we can locate south by joining the horns of the crescent moon―and find adventure in our own backyards.
