ARCTIC DREAMS is a journey to a largely unknown land,
a world filled with beauty and fraught with danger It is
the story of the arctic landscape; of the
animals - muskox, caribou, polar bear, bowhead whale,
narwhal - and the people who live there; of awesome ice
and benevolence of light; of the dreams of explorers who
have ventured there. Based on extensive research and
travel in the Arctic, and filled with fascinating detail.
ARCTIC DREAMS is also the story of the integrity of a
largely untouched land and what an understanding of the
land can mean in an urbanized, 20th - century world.
