"Gripping, exhilarating and inspiring." Sir Ranulph Fiennes, world's greatest living explorer.


Why did some people in history achieve at an epic level and others did not? What were they doing that was different from their contemporaries? And how can we bring these insights into our modern lives to help us achieve our own successes?


Starring an international cast of real-life people:

  • Roald Amundsen -- the great Norwegian explorer
  • Isambard Kingdom Brunel -- the greatest engineer the world has ever seen
  • Theodore Roosevelt -- the cowboy turned statesman


Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results reveals the bold ambitions that set each of these maverick leader's larger-than-life projects into motion.


Written by the award-winning author duo: decision scientist Brad Borkan and historian David Hirzel (co-authors of When Your Life Depends on It), their new book reveals in thrilling ways, the outsized risks and setbacks Amundsen, Brunel and Roosevelt endured. It also shows their remarkable legacy for our planet.


Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results dives deeply into their famous projects such as:

  • The harrowing building of the first tunnel under a river in the 1820s - an achievement with lasting impact on all cities today,
  • How today's time zones were precipitated by the Great Western Railway (then the longest and fastest in the world),
  • The epic construction of the Panama Canal, and
  • One man's quest for the South Pole.


It takes you up close and personal to the hardships and triumphs that turned these flawed individuals into legendary champions. Their endeavors are inspiring and gripping examples of the nature of the human spirit - showing our need to achieve and the desire to dream big to accomplish something magnificent and lasting.


If you enjoy books about real-life action, adventure, success and failure, such as Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air, or Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs, you will love Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results.


Buy Audacious Goals, Remarkable Results today and be prepared to be awed by the Explorer, the Engineer and the Statesman. You may never look at the world in the same way again.


And get ready to become inspired to undertake your own epic adventures.
