The Outward Bound EARTHBOOK is a field guide to environmental concerns compiled from activities created by Outward Bound staff. It is intended to assist any teacher or parent, and any student or friend of Nature, who wants to learn about, teach about, better understand, more fully appreciate, and participate in healing our environment.

Dozens of activities provide leaders and students an opportunity for experiential education about ecological issues. The EARTHBOOK's perspective is eco-centered rather than human-centered. Thus the EARTHBOOK challenges us to realize our connections with each other and with the planet which sustains us.

The EARTHBOOK is not just a book of activities. It can be used as a book of readings - it includes many quotations from great naturalists of the past and present as well as reflections from Outward Bound students. These readings can be shared around a campfire, contemplated in solitude, or discussed in a classroom. They serve as inspiration for each of us as we seek our own unique relationship with Nature.

All royalties from the sale of this book will be used for environmental education projects.
