OVER THE HORIZON: Exploring the Edges of a Changing Planet
The book is now available for pre-sale on my new website davidthoreson.com
About the story-
David has sailed over 65,000 nautical miles across the
globe including below the Antarctic Circle, three times across the Atlantic,
six times over the Arctic Circle, twice through the Northwest Passage and
completed a 28,000-mile circumnavigation of the North and South American
Continents. During this time, Thoreson has accumulated some 150,000 photographs
and over 600 pages of personal journal entries documenting his journeys.
Over The Horizon is an autobiographical photography
book. Thoreson has been called “The Accidental Explorer” because he is a sailor
from Iowa and ventured to the sea with a “salty” southern Minnesota farmer. In
this very personal account of his adventures, David combines story-telling with
stunning photography, ultimately arriving at a tipping point of human history
in the Arctic waters of the Northwest Passage.
After all the the years chasing
the horizon and following his dream, David became an eye-witness to a rapidly-changing
Arctic and ocean environment.Thoreson’s life has been profoundly impacted
by his eye-witness documentation of a changing Arctic environment with less
ice. He is now an advocate for ocean and wilderness protection along with a
more sustainable future for generations of explorers yet to come. Over the
Horizon is his beautiful and compelling life story...
