A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Constance Helmericks paddled into the Alaskan wilds in 1942, and spent twelve years exploring the Arctic with her husband. She wrote a series of bestselling books about their adventures, and co-filmed and produced three documentaries that were shown on national lecture tours and early television. Their story and photographs were twice featured in LIFE Magazine, including the cover. Later wilderness travels with her young daughters in Canada and Australia were subjects of her seventh and eight books. She was a thoughtful early environmental activist. She died in 1987.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

In suburban Arizona, 1964, Connie Helmericks announced to her two daughters, 12-year-old Ann and 14-year-old Jean, "We're going to make a canoe expedition to the Arctic Ocean." And for two successive summers, that’s exactly what they did. Down the Wild River North is the vividly told story of their adventures in the remote northern reaches of Canada and the Arctic, in a twenty-foot canoe, amidst a wondrous and vast landscape. A wilderness adventure, and a story of family bonds and spiritual renewal.
