Dive deep into that age-old habit humans have carried over centuries—the ever-tranquil act of bathing in nature.
Whether in oceans or lakes, streams, or rivers, humans have been drawn to water and the unique bathing opportunities it offers. This title celebrates our connection with water, focusing on outdoor bathing locations around the world.
From spots nature created expertly herself to places designed by humans to harness rugged and remote surroundings, this book examines in detail the long-standing relationship between humans and outdoor bathing in a way sure to charm the inner bather in us all.
