Award-winning classic about environmentalists Margaret and Olaus Murie.
"Wilderness and grandeur captured in an unusually graphic, interesting and enjoyable work." ----- The New Yorker
"While Rachel Carson was bending over tide pools in Maine, learning nature's secrets, Mardy Murie was trekking through the wilds of Alaska with her husband, naturalist Olaus Murie. She recounted their experiences, first alone, then with three children, in this charming book, which is now rightly considered a classic of nature writing and memoir." ----- Oregonian (Portland)
"The most agreeable adventure story I have run across in a long time -- excellent fireside reading."
----- San Francisco Chronicle
