Description

Ordeal By Ice by Farley Mowat is a gripping historical adventure that explores the perilous quest to discover the Northwest Passage through the Arctic. Part of The Top of the World Trilogy, this revised 1973 edition combines vivid storytelling with detailed research, bringing to life the courage, hardship, and determination of early Arctic explorers. Mowat masterfully recounts the dangerous expeditions through frozen seas, harsh climates, and uncharted territory, while also reflecting on the human cost of exploration. Complete with illustrations and maps, this volume offers readers both an exciting narrative and a fascinating look into Canadian and polar history. A wonderful addition for collectors of exploration books, Arctic history, Canadiana, and vintage nonfiction, Ordeal By Ice remains one of Farley Mowat’s most engaging and enduring works.

Paperback, Very Good. Does have a slight rip on front cover, outside edge of image.
