The Natural Navigator, Tenth Anniversary Edition by Tristan Gooley

Before GPS, before the compass, and even before cartography, we found our way by outdoor clues hiding in plain sight. A windswept tree, the depth of a puddle, or a trill of birdsong could point the way home, and they still do--if you know how to look. Writer and navigator Tristan Gooley invites us to notice the directional signs hidden all around us: in the sun, moon, stars, clouds, weather patterns, lengthening shadows, changing tides, growing plants, and habits of wildlife. This modern classic reminds us that we can find south by joining the horns of the crescent moon--and find adventure in our own backyards.
Tristan Gooley is the New York Times–bestselling author of How to Read Water, How to Read Nature, The Natural Navigator, The Lost Art of Reading Nature’s Signs, The Secret World of Weather, The Nature Instinct, How to Read a Tree, and The Hidden Seasons. He has led expeditions on five continents, climbed mountains in three, and is the only living person to have both flown and sailed solo across the Atlantic. His more than two decades of pioneering outdoor experience include research among tribal peoples in some of the remotest regions on Earth. He is a Fellow of the Royal Institute of Navigation and the Royal Geographical Society, a vice-chairman of Trailfinders, and he runs the world’s only school of natural navigation.
