Arctic Dreams: Imagination and Desire in a Northern Landscape

Barry Lopez has been hailed as a "master nature writer" by The New York Times Book Review, and "Arctic Dreams" is undoubtedly his masterwork. Based on 15 extended trips to Canada's far north, Artic Dreams is part adventure tale and part meditation on the art of exploration. This magical book dazzles with the wonder of the aurora borealis; the awesome power of polar bears and killer whales; the monumental grandeur of migrating icebergs; and the beauty and nobility of the Arctic's indigenous people. Evocative and everlasting, "Arctic Dreams" is a classic.
