Description

In 1992 Jean Aspen and her husband, Tom, took their young son to live in Alaska’s interior wilderness, building a cabin out of logs, hunting for food, and letting the vast, harsh great thing about the Arctic close in around them. Even as Jean had faced Alaska’s wilderness before — in a life-altering experience she chronicled in Arctic Daughter — this journey would be different. Dogged by sickness and hardships, bring to a halt from the remainder of the world, her circle of relatives faced not just a test of endurance, but of its own well-being and survival….

From a day by day struggle against the elements to an encounter with a grizzly bear at arm’s length, from moments of breathtaking beauty and self-realization to a harrowing, six-hundred-mile river passage back to civilization, Arctic Son chronicles fourteen remarkable months within the Arctic. At once a portrait of courage and a heart-pounding adventure story, Arctic Son portrays a circle of relatives’s peculiar journey into The us’s last frontier.
