While the old cold world can still be glimpsed in the movements of caribou, the hidden lives of wolves, or the hunting skill of an Inupiat elder, look closer and you'll find a new Arctic emerging in its place.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn \u003cem\u003eFrostlines\u003c\/em\u003e, Neil Shea reveals how the beauty, chaos, and power of change in the far north are reflected in the individual lives of people and animals. Structured as a revolution around the pole from east to west, Shea sojourns with a wolf pack on Canada's Ellesmere Island and travels among the Indigenous Netsilingmiut and Tlicho peoples of Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. He tracks dwindling caribou herds across Alaska and measures the potential of oil and gas developments along North America's wildest edge. And in the European Arctic, he explores the new Cold War rising between Russia, China, Europe, and the United States over who controls the pole and will reap its riches as the ice melts. What Shea finds is not one Arctic but many--all still linked by shattering cold, seasons of darkness, and a pure, inimitable light.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWritten with masterful prose and a spark of adventure, \u003cem\u003eFrostlines\u003c\/em\u003e is an expansive yet intimate revelation of the Arctic during a time of transformation, and a journey along the threshold of this stunning and sometimes frightening world that's emerging right before our eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Neil Shea\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0063138573\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780063138575\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Ecco Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/02\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs","brand":"Neil Shea","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46807203447039,"sku":"9780063138575","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a99a2411-3c2d-4c7e-abe4-3efff26e6e4a.jpg?v=1745378819","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/frostlines-neil-shea-9780063138575","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
