Yet among the dangers lies one of the most beautiful and fragile ecosystems in the world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDuring the 1920s, dozens of expeditions scoured the Chinese and Tibetan wilderness in search of the panda bear, a beast that many believed did not exist. When the two eldest sons of President Theodore Roosevelt sought the bear in 1928, they had little hope of success. Together with a team of scientists and naturalists, they accomplished what a decade of explorers could not, ultimately introducing the panda to the West. In the process, they documented a vanishing world and set off a new era of conservation biology.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlong the way, the Roosevelt expedition faced an incredible series of hardships as they disappeared in a blizzard, were attacked by robbers, overcome by sickness and disease, and lost their food supply in the mountains. The explorers would emerge transformed, although not everyone would survive. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eBeast in the Clouds\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003ebrings alive these extraordinary events in a potent nonfiction thriller featuring the indomitable Roosevelt family.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrom the soaring beauty of the Tibetan plateau to the somber depths of human struggle, Nathalia Holt brings her signature “immersive, evocative” (\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eBookreporter\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e) voice to this astonishing tale of adventure, harrowing defeat, and dazzling success.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-expander-header a-expander-partial-collapse-header\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Wide Genre","offers":[{"title":"Soft Cover","offer_id":47505413538012,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hard Cover","offer_id":47505413570780,"sku":null,"price":30.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/2044\/5148\/files\/20_ba38e5d3-f8f2-4e00-bef7-742e0fcba192.png?v=1769702387","url":"https:\/\/widegenre.com\/products\/the-beast-in-the-clouds-the-roosevelt-brothers-deadly-quest-to-find-the-mythical-giant-panda-by-nathalia-holt","provider":"WideGenre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
