Description

The history of the Arctic is rich, filled with fascinating and heroic stories of exploration, multicultural interactions, and humans facing nature at its most extreme. In Finding the Arctic, the accomplished arctic researcher Matthew Sturm collects probably the most most memorable and moving of these stories and weaves them around his own story of a 2,500-mile snowmobile expedition across arctic Alaska and Canada.
During that shuttle, Sturm and six companions followed a circuitous route that brought them to the various most historic spots in the North. They stood in the footsteps of their predecessors, experienced the landscape and the weather, and gained an intimate point of view on notable historical events, all chronicled here by Sturm. Written with humor and pathos, Finding the Arctic is a classic tale of adventure commute. And right through the book,Sturm, with his thirty-eight years of experience in the North, emerges as a very good guide for any who want to remember the Arctic of today and the day gone by.
