| In 1815, 12 American sailors found themselves shipwrecked in Africa and the Sahara desert, an area where survival under optimal conditions is almost impossible. Unfortunately, or fortunately (depending on how you look at it... could they have otherwise survived), the group was quickly captured and sold into slavery. |

Greg Davenport's Advanced Outdoor Navigation:
 Basics and Beyond
This guide takes readers well beyond the basic skills of map and compass, moving them to a level of complete understanding of navigation in the outdoors, regardless of terrain, time (day or night), or travel (rock, ice, desert, river, open sea, or jungle). As one of the most thorough books on the subject, Advanced Outdoor Navigation complements Falcon's successful list of navigation titles by going beyond the basics and offering readers the most comprehensive study of navigational skills ever published. Written by Greg Davenport, considered one of the best global survival experts in the world.
