To the Edges of the Earth

Four years. Seven continents. A quest to document and champion the preservation of the most remote wilderness realms on earth. Veteran wildlife photographer Peter Pickford and his wife, Beverly, had a dream to photograph the last remaining wild land on earth. "We had become increasingly distressed by two ideas. The first was a sense of panic at how rapidly wild places and the life that thrived there were diminishing. The second was that we felt compelled to act, to do something about it. I was haunted by the words 'Be the change you want to see in the world'."

To the Edges of the Earth recounts their four and a half years of overland travel across every continent in their specially adapted Land Rover. Their journey took them not only through the earth's last wild landscapes but deeper into the heart of adventure: the places, the people, the excitement, the serenity, the hardship and the joy that stepping outside into the unknown brings sharply into focus.

Join them on their journey through the storms of Antarctica and the quiet brooding of ancient Patagonian forest, and discover the vast vistas and wild denizens of Alaska and the Yukon. Feel the potent scrutiny of a polar bear in the Arctic, endure the lack of oxygen on the Tibetan Plateau, the loneliness of the deserted Australian Kimberley, and sleep beside lions in the chill dawn of Namibia's Skeleton Coast, to culminate ultimately, as all journeys should, in a powerful evocation of who we are and our subconscious association and bond with the planet that is our home.
