First edition first printing of Farley Mowat's The Snow Walker published by McClelland & Stewart in 1975; hardcover with very good dust jacket, not price clipped (shows $8.95) in a book that itself is bright, square, unmarked and in very good condition. A good read and a good writer. Central to Farley Mowat's writing is his quest to understand the often-forgotten native people of the vast arctic wilderness. In this moving collection, he allows these people to describe in their own words the adventures they experience as they struggle to survive in an isolated, untamed land. Stories of survival and courage, of superstition and fate, of uncompromising loyalty to family and tribe are presented here; offering a vivid portrait of a people whose existence is often beyond the comprehension of modern man.
