Lost in Mongolia: Rafting the World's Last Unchallenged River
- Used Book in Good Condition
From the Yeniseyâ€™s headwaters in the wild heart of central Asia to its mouth on the Arctic Ocean, Colin Angus and his fellow adventurers travel 5,500 kilometres of one of the worldâ€™s most dangerous rivers through remotest Mongolia and Siberia, and live to tell about it.

Exploration is Colin Angusâ€™ calling. It is not only the tug of excitement and challenge that keeps sending him on death-defying journeys down some of the worldâ€™s most powerful waterways, it is a desire to know a place more intimately than you could from the window of a train, to feel the soul of a place. Angus emphasizes that rivers have always been key to the development of complex societies and the rise of civilizations, offering as they do irrigation, transportation, hydroelectric power, and food. But, as Lost in Mongolia captures with breathtaking detail, while they giveth plenty, the great rivers also taketh away in an instant. In Lost in Mongolia, Colin Angus takes readers through never-before-seen territory and his wonderful sense of adventure and humour come through on every page.
