ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR:
THE NEW YORK TIMESÂ â€¢ NPR â€¢Â THE GUARDIAN

From pole to pole and across decades of lived experience, National Book Award-winning author Barry Lopez delivers his most far-ranging, yet personal, work to date. Horizon moves indelibly, immersively, through the authorâ€™s travels to six regions of the world: from Western Oregon to the High Arctic; from the GalÃ¡pagos to the Kenyan desert; from Botany Bay in Australia to finally, unforgettably, the ice shelves of Antarctica.
Â
Along the way, Lopez probes the long history of humanityâ€™s thirst for exploration, including the prehistoric peoples who trekked across Skraeling Island in northern Canada, the colonialists who plundered Central Africa, an enlightenment-era Englishman who sailed the Pacific, a Native American emissary who found his way into isolationist Japan, and todayâ€™s ecotourists in the tropics. And always, throughout his journeys to some of the hottest, coldest, and most desolate places on the globe, Lopez searches for meaning and purpose in a broken world.
