Going to Extremes

Adventure travel journalist Peter Mandel shares his daring experiences including surviving a coup in Ecuador, exploring penguin colonies at the South Pole and fishing for piranha in Brazil.

A nationally known journalist for The Boston Globe, The Washington Post, National Geographic and The Los Angeles Times, Mandel hunts for his stories and photos in the world's far corners. His articles have taken him to Antarctica, India, Egypt, Patagonia, the fjords of Norway, the mountain pathways of Japan and the deserts of Africa.
