Life Lessons from Explorers, by Felicity Aston
In "Life Lessons from Explorers," explorer and writer Felicity Aston has curated a diverse set of experiences and wisdom gleaned from the journeys of remarkable explorers.
Life Lessons is organized into thematic chapters, each centered around a specific lesson like resilience, innovation, humanity, creativity, and more—each drawn from the lives of various explorers. From courage to adaptability and curiosity, Aston skillfully delves into the qualities that have defined these individuals and their expeditions.
Readers will learn from giants like Ernest Shackleton, Amelia Earhart, and Neil Armstrong as well as lesser known globally but equally impressive explorers like Junko Tabei, Nain Singh Rawat, and Abu Al-Hasan Al-Masudi. Throughout the book, Felicity Aston shares her own experiences as an explorer, offering a personal touch that adds depth to the narrative. (Check out her other books in our collection!) She seamlessly combines historical accounts with contemporary perspectives, connecting the past and the present in a way that resonates with readers.
“I was drawn to Felicity Aston through her Arctic and Antarctic adventures, and with Life Lessons, she ties the explorations of many to the challenges we face in our everyday lives. Like “Shackleton’s Way,” this is a must-read for anyone seeking inspiration and guidance on navigating life's challenges.”
