What does it mean to be an explorer in the twenty-first
century?Explorer is the story of what first led Benedict Allen to
head for the farthest reaches of our planet - at a time when there
were still valleys and ranges known only to the remote communities
who inhabited them. It is also the story of why, thirty years
later, he is still exploring. It's the story of a journey back to a
clouded mountain in New Guinea to find a man called Korsai who had
once been a friend, and to fulfil a promise made as young men.It is
also a story of what it is to be 'lost' and 'found'. Honest,
sensitive and packed with insight, in Explorer Allen considers the
lessons he has learnt from his numerous expeditions - most
importantly, from the communities he has encountered: there is a
value in disconnecting from all that we are familiar with,
particularly in today's crowded world. And there is a value in
connecting with worlds unfamiliar to us, some of whom have lived in
harmony, not competition, with nature for generations.We explore
not to plant a flag, or leave a mark, but to open up and allow the
place and people to leave their mark on us.
