In High Latitudes, Farley Mowat chronicles for the first time the hazardous journey he took across northern Canada in 1966. He hoped to write a book that would let northern people speak for themselves and that would expose the speciousness of the political idea that the North was “a bloody great wasteland? with no people in it, and therefore resource developers could exploit it however they chose. For reasons Mowat describes, that book did not get written then. But here it is now, with the original conversations recorded by Mowat during that epic journey. 

In vintage Mowat fashion, the legendary writer delivers a sweeping narrative brimming with breathtaking nature writing, suspenseful storytelling, larger-than-life characters, ferocious humor, pitiless rage, iconoclastic insights, and compassionate concern. In her foreword, Margaret Atwood writes: “High Latitudes gives us, with passion and insight, a vertical section of time past—the time that preceded our present. The choices that were made then affect our now, just as the choices we make now will determine the future...?
