Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: During Tom Sheppard's career in the Royal Air Force as a pilot and test pilot he planned, led and trained teams for numerous expeditions and operations - among them the first coast-to-coast crossing of the Sahara through the Mauritanian Empty Quarter for which he received the Royal Geographic Society's Ness Award. He has totalled more than 90,000 overland miles on four and two wheels and has been a Land Rover owner for over 25 years. Apart from navigating jet aircraft his navigation experience has spanned sun compasses, astro navigation, Transit sat-nav and use of GPS and satellite imagery to supplement otherwise uncertain mapping.

Since 1976 and between expeditions, he has worked for British Aerospace and has been an author and consultant on four-wheel drive. On this, the logistics and planning of expeditions and the hugely exciting implications of space technology on mapping, positioning and communications he admits he is unlikely to ever stop learning.
