KEY SELLING POINTS:
Jon Turk is an established author, with numerous books and dozens of magazine articles under his belt.
Timely and compelling, Jon Turk's new book takes the North American reader out of their current habitat and places them in a more natural environment where we are invited to look at the world with compassion, openness, and mindfulness.
The writing style is an intriguing hybrid of anthropological observations, adventure travel recollections, natural history, and optimistic dreams about the future of human civilization.
The author discusses mountaineering, travel, natural history, environmentalism, shamanism, animism, and cosmology in an engaging, compassionate, and accessible manner.
His focus is on how travels and adventures in remote landscapes teach us about our place as humans in this internet-crazed, oil-soaked, consumer-oriented modern world.
Jon believes that being "tough" and "pushing the limits" is simply not enough to survive in the 21st century. In fact, the old adage "When the going gets tough, the tough get going", is no longer powerful or effective enough.
MARKETING + PROMOTION:
National, regional, and subject-specific print features, excerpts and review coverage
