1991. 217 pp, color photos. Excellent large-format book describes Outward Bound activities worldwide. The book has beautiful photos of O.B. programs around the world. It also contains a good synopsis of OB History and origins. It is rather outdated however - since 1991 there are now 50 Outward Bound schools, many of them not included in this edition. Also, information on the schools is no longer entirely accurate.
As a current staff member for the Australian Outward Bound School, I noticed that the photos and text show activities we no longer run and areas in which we no longer operate. But fear not OB fans - rumour has it from a source at the Canadian Outward Bound Wilderness School I recently visited that another book is on the agenda for the author. I'm hanging out for that!This book is still a beautiful investment, especially for those interested in capturing OB before the 21st Century. Hardcover, New condition with dust jacket.
