Paperback. Zustand: Good. Farley Mowat is a World renowed author: over 17 million books sold, New York Times calls him a master storyteller. * In High Latitudes, he chronicles his hazardous 1966 journey across northern Canada. * Readers loved this book, calling it a Great story, an Excellent read, where they learned much about the Canadian High Arctic. * A must-have for wilderness lovers. In High Latitudes, Farley Mowat hoped to write a book that would let northern people speak for themselves and that would expose the speciousness of the political idea that the North was a bloody great wasteland with no people in it, and therefore resource developers could exploit it however they chose. For reasons Mowat describes, that book did not get written then. But here it is now, with the original conversations recorded by Mowat during that epic journey. In vintage Mowat fashion, the legendary writer delivers a sweeping narrative brimming with breathtaking nature writing, suspenseful storytelling, larger-than-life characters, ferocious humor, pitiless rage, iconoclastic insights, and compassionate concern. In her foreword, Margaret Atwood writes: High Latitudes gives us, with passion and insight, a vertical section of time past--the time that preceded our present. The choices that were made then affect our now, just as the choices we make now will determine the future. …
