How an Explorer, an Engineer, and a Statesman shaped our modern world
by Brad Borkan and David Hirzel
Six incredible endeavors and the three unstoppable people who made them happen.
The book profiles six examples of the mighty human spirit, such as the building of the Panama Canal, the Great Western Railway and the quest for the South Pole, showing us how people like the explorer Roald Amundsen, the engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, and the cowboy-turned-statesman Theodore Roosevelt created lasting achievements over 100 years ago that even today influence our lives. And they did this when others were saying, “It can’t be done!”
Our book has been endorsed by Sir Ranulph Fiennes, the world’s greatest living explorer: “Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results is a deeply fascinating book. I found it gripping, exhilarating and inspiring.”
