About the author

Chris Bray was born into a life of adventure, sailing around the world for five years with his family on their homemade yacht Starship. Then, when he was just 20 years old, Chris organized and embarked on a 30-day expedition in Tasmania s untracked south-western wilderness complete with airdrops of supplies. Australian Geographic labeled this trek "one of the toughest foot journeys in the world" and named him, along with his hiking mate Jasper Timm, the "Young Adventurer of the Year" in 2004. Today, when he is not embarking on further adventures, he works as a freelance writer and photographer and gives motivational talks to students."

Pier 9, 2010. Softcover (16 x 24 cm), 362 pages (map, diagram, photographs). ISBN: 9781741969672. Very Good condition. Bumped, scuffed. Rolled/creased, most notably at corners. Some creases on front cover. Pages tanning/foxing. Soiled. "In 2005, Australians Chris Bray (then 21 years old) and Clark Carter (20) dreamed of embarking on an adventure completely different from any polar, mountaineering or river expedition ever before attempted. With virtually no prior experience they vowed to cross the ninth largest island in the world - Victoria Island in the Canadian Arctic - on foot. It was to be a world-first, traversing 1,000 km of the most extreme and diverse landscape on the planet - everything from snow and ice to mud, shattered rock, rivers and fields of boulders. With humour and honesty, Chris Bray tells their thrilling story - the drama, the dangers and the sheer exhilaration of exploring a terrain filled with magic and wonder."
