The Everglades

- Stories of Grit and Spirit from the Mangrove Wilderness

Bag om The Everglades

Everglades National Park¿s mangrove ecosystem, extending over 230,000 acres of south Florida, is the most expansive in the western hemisphere and the largest continuous system of mangroves in the world. Most of this mangrove area is remote, accessible only by boat, complex and difficult to navigate. In Out There: Voices from the Everglades Mangrove Wilderness, we hear 21 stories from people who have ventured into this wilderness¿for scientific work, artistic work, search-and-rescue missions, for personal renewal, or for the pure adventure of it. They tell stories of manatee rescue, shark encounters, storms and strandings, stories of environmental value and threat, wild beauty, personal enchantment and spirit. Together these stories reveal a world beyond the reach of most travelers. They also offer support and offer enticement to the intrepid few who may venture ¿out there¿ and return with stories of their own.
