Lopez's journey across our frozen planet is a celebration of the Arctic in all
its guises. A hostile landscape of ice, freezing oceans and dazzling
skyscapes. Home to millions of diverse animals and people. The stage to
massive migrations by land, sea and air. The setting of epic exploratory
voyages. In crystalline prose, Lopez captures the magic of the Arctic: the
essential mystery and beauty of a continent that has enchanted man's
imagination and ambition for centuries. 'The Arctic dreamland seen and
described by a writer of rare perception and poetic descriptive power...The
pages sparkle with Arctic light' S
