Overview

Follow Michael Engelhard's boot prints across the tussock-filled tundra of Alaska for an enthralling story of bear encounters, white-knuckled river moments, and lyrical observations of a vast, wild landscape. A trained anthropologist, Engelhard evokes classic writers like Margaret Murie, Farley Mowat, and Edward Abbey with deep dives into human and natural history. Much more than a harrowing account of a human-powered solo journey, Arctic Traverse shares anecdotes from encounters with Indigenous elders, clients, homesteaders, and others as well as from Engelhard's intimate experiences of the land itself.

Through this captivating and deeply personal story, readers will gain a newfound appreciation for wild places.
