After being impressed by the biographies of astronauts Scott Parazynski, Chris Hadfield and Scott Kelly, I'm searching for more biographies of adventurous and high-achieving people. |

Well, this thread went a bit Phil Collinsy so I'll just mention I decided to pick up 'Endurance', the book about Shackleton's Antarctic expedition and the namesake of Scott Kelly's book. It's very well written. |

51G93BxFZHL.jpg ![]() ![]() ![]() How about the life of a Victorian adventurer, Mr. Darcy lookalike, shirt lifter (possibly a eunuch) and all round smashing chap who failed terribly at legitimate business, so instead took up that classic 19th century calling of knocking the savages into shape and creating his own jungle kingdom while fighting armies of pirates from a steam ship? |

250px-Dakar-dvd.jpg ![]() ![]() ![]() This wasn't bad: "Race to Dakar" by Charley Boorman, the rich, obnoxious twat who accompanied Ewan McGregor on his motorbike trip in "Long Way Round". The book chronicles his attempt to run the Dakar Rally with a small support team and a cameraman, with the idea of making a TV series about it later. |
