Physical and Spiritual Survival with the Last Remote Cultures on the Planet

Les Stroud has logged over half a million miles across the globe-from the lush jungles of Papua New Guinea and the sun-scorched sands of the Kalahari to the harsh cold of the Canadian Arctic. He has survived for weeks at a time in harsh situations and in isolated, challenging environments. Offering us a rare glimpse of some of the world's most remote cultures-such as the Sea Gypsies in Malaysia and the San Bushmen in Africa-Beyond Survivorman covers Stroud's most challenging journey of all: learning not only how to survive, but also how to connect spiritually to the earth.
