Discovering The Arctic
An illustrated children's biography of 19th-century explorer John Rae, a Scotsman who opened up vast tracts of land in the Canadian Arctic and may have been the true discoverer of the Northwest Passage. Rae was one of the first Europeans to show respect for Inuit customs and to take inspiration from their Arctic survival skills.
