About This Item
International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press, 2006. Softcover. Good. 5x0x8. Signed by Author. Inscribed "Jim Because every journey follows a dream & every dream leads to a journey. Jon Turk". In 1996 a 9,500-year-old skeleton unearthed beside the Columbia River galvanized anthropologists with the possibility that prehistoric humans reached North America from northern Japan by crossing the ocean in small open boats. In the Wake of the Jomon, world-class kayaker and science writer Jon Turk relates his successful attempt to re-create this perilous migration, a voyage that Paddler magazine named one of the ten greatest sea kayak expeditions of all time. Dr. Jon Turk is a scientist, author, and National Geographic award-winning explorer whose worldview was altered by extended visits with Moolynaut, a Siberian shaman. He was nominated by National Geographic as one of the Top Ten Adventurers of the Year in 2012.
