Nicholas Crane

Nicholas Crane has been a full-time writer since 1979. The author of several travel books, his writing has also been published in the Daily Telegraph, the Sunday Times and the Guardian. In 1986 he was part of a two-man team, which for the first time identified and reached the geographical Pole of Inaccessibility, a remote corner of the Gobi desert and the point on the globe most distant from the open sea.

His journeys in Tibet, China, Afghanistan and Africa led to his award in 1993 of the Royal Scottish Geographical Society's 'Mungo Park' medal. He lives in London with his wife, Annabel, and two children, Imogen and Kit.
