Now in paperback: Josh Bernstein, host of The History Channel’s hit series Digging for the Truth, takes readers beyond the cameras for an even closer look at his adventures through some of the most intriguing places on the planet.
No location is too dangerous, no terrain too rough, no culture too exotic for explorer and survival expert Josh Bernstein. With his unique hands-on approach, he travels the globe, seeking answers to some of the most enigmatic mysteries of the ancient world. Digging for the Truth shares Josh’s personal stories, journals, and insights, revealing the risks and dangers of what went on behind the scenes in shooting the show, and the fascinating details about what he uncovers along each adventure. Readers are right in the action as he:
• Discovers who built Egypt’s pyramids and learns what secrets may be buried below the Sphinx.
• Follows the trail of the Lost Ark of the Covenant to the remote monasteries and churches of Ethiopia.
• Sails a Viking ship on a quest to determine if the Vikings landed in the New World five hundred years before Columbus.
“The best thing for archaeology’s image since Harrison Ford cocked his hat and starred in Raiders of the Lost Ark.”
—The New York Times
“...an exciting, addicting read for fans of the show, present and future.”
—Publishers Weekly
“...Bernstein vividly describes his trips to 10 exotic locales...He has the enthusiasm of someone who is very interested in the subject—but hasn’t had that spirit dulled by years of doctoral study.”
—New Jersey Jewish Standard
“...a lush and beautiful exploration of all the exotic locales that his viewers are accustomed to seeing on the show...coffee-table-worthy...and exciting and interesting read—at times as in-depth and fast-paced as a Clive Cussler novel...lets the reader feel like a part of Bernstein’s epic journey.”
—Decatur Tribune (IL)
“The host of the History Channel’s Digging for the Truth presents a behind-the-scenes tour of some of his most interesting and physically challenging adventures”
