The Canadian subarctic is a world of forest, prairie, and muskeg; of rainbow trout, moose, and caribou; of Indian hunters and trappers. It is also a world of boomtowns and bars, oil rigs and seismic soundings; of white energy speculators, ranchers, and sports hunters. Brody came to this dual world with the job of "mapping" the lands of northwest British Columbia as well as the way of life of a small group of Beaver Indians with a viable hunting economy living in the path of a projected oil pipeline. The result is Maps and Dreams, Brody's account of his extraordinary eighteen-month journey through the world of a people who have no intention of vanishing into the past.

In this beautifully written book, readers go on a moose hunt; trap beaver; mourn at a funeral; drink in white bars; visit camps, cabins, and traplines by pickup truck, on horseback, and on foot. Brody's powerful commentary also retraces the history of the ever-expanding white frontier from the first eighteenth-century explorer to the wildest corporate energy dreams of the present day. In the process, readers see how Indian dreams and white dreams, Indians maps and white maps, collide.

Written by Arctic expert Polly Evans, this new, thoroughly updated fourth edition of Bradt's Northern Lights: a Practical Travel Guide does what it says on the tin, providing practical guidance to the best places to view the natural phenomenon also known as the aurora borealis. Designed for the many people who dream of witnessing this spectacle, it remains the only guidebook to provide detailed treatment of optimum locations across North America (Canada, Alaska), Greenland and Europe (Sweden, Norway, Finland and Iceland) while also covering practicalities, with this edition providing greater detail on a wider range of accommodation options, from budget hotels to Sweden's spectacular ICEHOTEL, built each year from river water before melting in spring. The northern lights - arguably the greatest light show you'll ever see - are a major, increasingly popular tourist draw of the Arctic and sub-Arctic winter.

The experience is also increasingly popular: in the decade to 2016, winter tourism to northern Norway increased by 378%. As well as advice on the best places to see auroras, this guide offers a succinct, easy-to-understand explanation of the science behind the northern lights, and provides information on tour operators offering northern lights packages, up-to-date guidance on photographing the aurora in the light of technological improvements, alongside practical tips including what to wear, how to drive in winter conditions and how to understand northern lights forecasting. The guide is further enriched by suggestions for complementary daytime activities such as dog sledging, skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling and wildlife safaris; an examination of the reactions of the early explorers to their first sightings of this phenomenon; and insights into the myths and legends of the northern indigenous peoples.

This is a new map for us, combining both the Canadian and the American portions of the Pacific coastline north from the Seattle area to the Alaska Panhandle, ending at the Glacier Bay National Park, which extends considerably north of the Bay itself. Side one concentrates on the Canadian portion, from Victoria north to the Queen Charlotte/Haida Gwaii islands, showing ferry routes and the routes most favoured by cruise ships. As a coastal map, it doesnt go very far inland, but shows the Coastal mountain range to good advantage.

Side two provides a very detailed map of that portion of Alaska known as the Panhandle a series of islands north and west of Canada that is very popular with cruisers. All parks and cruise line routes are shown. Interestingly, at the top end of Glacier Bay, the Canadian border splits the Panhandle from the rest of Alaska; not intentionally, but when the border was agreed upon in the early 1900s, no one realized that the glacier on that site might one day melt. Well, melt it has, leaving a kilometre-long stretch of beach that is part of Canada! Regardless, this map completes ITMB mapping of the Pacific coastline of North America rom the Bering Sea to Panama, a cartographic task that began decades ago.
