About This Book

A comprehensive survey of the polar regions that links physical geography and climate to the lives of plants, animals, and people. The work describes ice, glaciers, icebergs and navigation in polar seas, catalogs marine mammals and seabirds and their adaptations, and discusses terrestrial landscapes and vegetation shaped by long winters and brief summers. Ethnographic and travel material sketches the habits, clothing, tools, and survival strategies of native inhabitants and explorers across Greenland, Iceland, Scandinavia, Siberia, and Alaska, combining natural history with practical observations on hunting, shelter, and human responses to extreme cold.
