CEASELESS EXPLORER: CONVERSATIONS WITH JOSEPH R. SPIES is the colorful biography of chemist, cat photographer, and animal advocate Dr. Joseph Spies. Born in South Dakota, Joseph Spies was placed in an orphanage by his father after his mother died. He rose above his rough beginnings to earn his Ph.D. in chemistry and publish over 80 articles in his field. Equally passionate about his hobby of photographing animals (particularly cats), he published five books of animal photography, including many award-winning photos. The book describes the many arresting events of his life--sheep herding in his youth, coping with his wife's Alzheimer's Disease, and finally, at the height of his world travels--sleeping out on the Arctic ice in his eighties. This biography explores what drove Dr. Spies to accomplish so much in his 90 years. The 250-page book includes 75 pages of Spies color and black-and-white photographs.
