How can you determine the cardinal directions from a puddle? What does the curvature of a tree indicate? And what does the sand beneath our feet reveal about the tides? Tristan Gooley explains how to navigate landscapes, cities, forests, or coastlines—without a map, without GPS, using only the stars and elements. This is not just about outdoor adventures or survival training, but about an impressive, easily learnable art. This book teaches us to observe closely, to smell, and to listen. For the curious who stay at home and enthusiastic imitators.
