With the support of commerce, the British, US and other Armed Forces, he has organized and led over 100 expeditions to far corners of the world. The objectives of his challenging ventures have always included scientific exploration, wildlife conservation and aid to local communities. At the same time he has sought to develop leadership in young people through Operations Drake and Raleigh and assist the less privileged youth of urban areas. Broadcaster, public speaker and author of 15 books, John Blashford-Snell is regarded as an authority and as President of the Scientific Exploration Society continues to explore today.
