National bestselling author and professional adventurer Adam Shoalts will join us to discuss his well-known expeditions in Canada’s wilderness, including his most recent book, Vanished Beyond the Map. It is the story of a legendary lost explorer who disappeared more than a century ago and Shoalts’s quest to retrace his route.
Adam Shoalts is a professional adventurer and Westaway Explorer-in-Residence at the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. His expeditions range from mapping rivers to archaeological projects, but Shoalts is best known for his long solo wilderness journeys, including crossing alone nearly 4,000 km of Canada’s Arctic. Named one of the “greatest living explorers” by CBC and declared “Canada’s Indiana Jones” by the Toronto Star, Shoalts’s latest quest was retracing the route of a lost explorer, the subject of his new bestselling book Vanished Beyond the Map. His other books include Where the Falcon Flies, The Whisper on the Night Wind, A History of Canada in 10 Maps, and Beyond the Trees: A Journey Alone Across Canada’s Arctic, all of them national bestsellers. He has a PhD from McMaster University in history, and in his free time, enjoys long walks in the woods.
Tickets are $15 + HST each.
