SUMMARY:Beyond Adventure Speaker Series - Kevin Fedarko - ***at the Swanson Auditorium in the Nebraska Union
DESCRIPTION:On February 19th\, author and adventurer Kevin Fedarko\, will be presenting for the Beyond Adventure Speaker Series and signing books at the Swanson Auditorium in the Nebraska Union. You don’t want to miss it!\nAbout the Book:\nThe Grand Canyon is an American treasure\, visited by more than 6 million people a year\, many of whom are rendered speechless by its vast beauty\, mystery\, and complexity. Now\, in A Walk in the Park\, author Kevin Fedarko chronicles his year-long effort to find a 750-mile path along the length of the Grand Canyon\, through a vertical wilderness suspended between the caprock along the rims of the abyss and the Colorado River\, which flows along its bottom. Consisting of countless cliffs and steep drops\, plus immense stretches with almost no access to water\, and the fact that not a single trail links its eastern doorway to its western terminus\, this jewel of national parks is so challenging that when Fedarko departed fewer people had completed the journey in one single hike than had walked on the moon. The intensity of the effort required him to break his trip into several legs\, each of which held staggering dangers and unexpected discoveries. \nAbout the Author:\nKevin Fedarko has spent the past twenty years writing about conservation\, exploration\, and the Grand Canyon. He has been a staff writer at Time\, where he worked primarily on the foreign affairs desk\, and a senior editor at Outside\, where he covered outdoor adventure. His writing has appeared in National Geographic\, The New York Times\, and Esquire\, among other publications. He is the author of The Emerald Mile: The Epic Story of the Fastest Ride in History Through the Heart of the Grand Canyon\, which won the Reading the West Book Award\, and A Walk in the Park: The True Story of a Spectacular Misadventure in the Grand Canyon\, which won the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction. Both books were also New York Times bestsellers and winners of a National Outdoor Book Award. Fedarko lives in Flagstaff\, Arizona.
