## Description

The Arctic is in Paul Nicklen’s blood. Born and raised on Baffin Island, Nunavut, he grew up in one of the only non-Inuit families in a tiny native settlement amid the ice fields, floes, and frigid seas of Northern Canada. At an age when most children are playing hide-and-seek, he was learning life-and-death lessons of survival: how to read the weather, find shelter in a frozen snowscape, or live off the land as his Inuit neighbors had done for centuries. Today Nicklen is a naturalist and wildlife photographer uniquely qualified to portray the impact of climate change on the polar regions and their inhabitants, human and animal alike. In a wise and wonderful intertwining of art and science, his bold expeditions plunge him into freezing seas to capture unprecedented, up-close documentation of the lives of leopard seals, whales, walruses, polar bears, bearded seals, and narwhals. Bathed in polar light, his images, inspiring and amazing, break new ground in photography and provide a vivid, timely portrait of two extraordinary, endangered ecosystems.

Review: Such a beautiful book. - I am a zoo volunteer at the Polar Bear habitat so this book really touches my heart. Beautiful pictures coupled with well-written narrative. Makes for a beautiful sofa table book.
Review: unlike anything else - I got this as a gift and it was a fantastic success. The pictures are gorgeous and the text is interesting, its truly a one of a kind book. I did a lot of research and this book contains photos you cant find anywhere else... TIP: If you know someone who likes narwhals, this will leave them speechless...don't even look at anything else, this is what you should buy for them. I HIGHLY recommend this book. As an animal lover with a great appreciation for photography, I consider this to be one of my all time best desertcart purchases.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautiful Book!
*by A***Y on February 6, 2010*

Heard the author on NPR and bought it as a Christmas present to my husband and myself. It is a beautiful coffee table book; it is quite large (approx16x13),so it would not travel easily. The pictures are awesome! From listening to the author on NPR he tells how the pictures are taken, which is amazing! I have just started reading it and I am sure it will be well worth the read.
