The Clouded Leopard by Wade Davis
For many years and through many of the world's most remote regions, Wade Davis has travelled in search of the rare places where cultural diversity survives, untainted by the influences of globalisation and modernisation. This work brings together the extraordinary travels that sprang from this quest.
Wade Davis is Explorer-in-Residence at the National Geographic Society - named one of their 'Explorers of the Millenium'. A Harvard-trained anthropologist and ethnobotanist, he has travelled widely and is the recipient of numerous awards, including the 2002 Lowell Thomas Medal, the Banff Mountain Book and Film Festival Award for adventure travel writing and the 2002 Lannan Foundation prize for literary non-fiction. In 2004 he was made an Honorary Member of the Explorer's Club. He lectures widely in the UK, US and Canada and writes for publications including National Geographic, the New York Times, Outside, Harpers, Fortune, Conde Nast Traveller, the Wall Street Journal, the Washington Post, International Herald Tribune, Toronto Globe & Mail and National Geographic Traveller. His books include the international bestseller, The Serpent and the Rainbow, as well as Shadows in the Sun, Light at the Edge of the World and One River. He is currently writing a book about the early British efforts on Everest in 1921-24.
