The Darkest Places
Unsolved Mysteries, True Crimes, and Harrowing Disasters in the Wild
Description:... In the Wilderness, something can go horribly awry at any moment. And sometimes the truth really is stranger than fiction. In The Darkest Places, the editors of Outside chronicle mysterious disappearances, unsolved murders, and deadly disasters. The collection takes us to far-flung places no sane person would want to go. What ties it all together are the incredible voices of legendary Outside contributors who turn their subjects into literary gold and have helped to keep Outside in business for more than forty years. Outside is an American magazine focused on the outdoors. The first issue was published in September 1977, and since then the magazine has featured writers such as Jim Harrison, Sebastian Junger, Thomas McGuane, and Jon Krakauer. Its mission statement is "to inspire active participation in the world outside through award-winning coverage of the sports, people, places, adventure, discoveries, health and fitness, gear and apparel, trends, and events that make up an active lifestyle."
