Ed Stafford—adventurer extraordinaire and Guinness World Record holder for walking the length of the Amazon River—likes a challenge. Casting about for an adventure that would top the extraordinary feat he recounts in Walking the Amazon, Stafford decides to maroon himself on an uninhabited island in the South Pacific. His mission: to survive for sixty days equipped with nothing—no food, water, or even clothing—except the video cameras he would use to document his time. Detailing Stafford's jaw-dropping sojourn on the island of Olourua, Naked and Marooned is a tale of unparalleled adventure and of one man's will to push himself to the outer limits—and survive.

Ed Stafford is the author of Walking the Amazon and a former European Adventurer of the Year. He was also a finalist for the National Geographic Adventurer of the Year in 2010, and he is a Guinness World Record holder for walking the length of the Amazon River. He started running worldwide expeditions after retiring from the British army as a captain in 2002. When not leading trips, he worked alongside the United Nations in Afghanistan, assisting with the running of their first presidential elections. Prior to this journey, he was in production with the BBC on its conversation series Lost Land of the Jaguar. In August 2010, Ed became the first man to walk the length of the Amazon River, accompanied by forestry worker Gadiel "Cho" Sanchez Rivera, for all but four months of the twenty-eight-month journey. Ed lives in London.

Jonathan Cowley is a British voice actor who calls Los Angeles home. He is an accomplished narrator, having recorded over one hundred audiobooks and received AudioFile Earphones Awards for his narration of The Science of Evil by Simon Baron-Cohen, The Tower, the Zoo and the Tortoise by Julia Stuart, and The Angry Chef's Guide to Spotting Bullsh*t in the World of Food by Anthony Warner. Jonathan holds a private pilot license and sports the latest in bionic technology, being the proud user of a bionic hand.
