In the Name of Wild: One Family, Five Years, Ten Countries, and a New Vision of Wildness - Paperback
by Phillip Vannini (Author), April Vannini (Author), Autumn Vannini (With)
A global quest for the meaning of wildness.
The Vanninis traveled across five continents to answer one question: what is the meaning of "wild"? Any romantic expectations were nearly dashed by competing answers. In the wild, adventurers saw conquest, conservationists saw vulnerability, and businesses saw profit. Through conversations with both fellow travelers and people who live in places like Iceland, Patagonia, or Tasmania, In the Name of Wild invites readers to reflect on a shared desire in our pursuit of the wilderness. In the "remote" places of the world, they explain, we do not seek the absence of humanity but a kinship with the land and one another.Phillip Vannini and April Vannini teach at Royal Road University in British Columbia. They are authors of Wilderness and Inhabited: Wildness and the Vitality of the Land and directors of the documentaries In the Name of Wild and Inhabited.
