Seller's Description:
Fine. 8vo. 191pp, index, maps, col ills. Slight edge wear to covers. In 1984 Prince Charles promised unlimited adventure to young people who had the stamina, compassion and courage to join Operation Raleigh. Since then more than 5000 Venturers from all over the world have travelled to some of the most inaccessible places in the world, living and working in extremes of climate and terrain. The authors follow the adventures and scientific discoveries of the expeditions as they pan for the gold of El Dorado, protect the endangered leatherneck turtles of Panama and the rhinos and elephants of Africa, or build schools and dispensaries. Join the young explorers sailing the oceans in square riggers, hacking through the jungles of Panama, Indonesia and Guyana and cross the ice fields of Alaska. Excellent modern adventure and exploration.
