Do they mean the same to everyone? As they embarked on their fieldwork the Vannini family expected pristine landscapes,but romantic ideals soon crashed into reality. Adventurers were there to conquer the wilderness. Conservationists were there to manage it. Tourism operators were there to make a dollar.   Part travelogue,part ethnography, In the Name of Wild  takes us on a wide-ranging journey,searching for answers from people who call places like Tasmania,Patagonia,and Iceland home. Wildness,they explain,isnt about remoteness or an absence of people.
