Arctic Aurora: Canada's Yukon and Northwest Territories: Imagine a land more than a dozen times the size of Montana, a land of immense inland seas, oceans of uncut forests, and myriad untamed rivers filled with huge northern pike, arctic grayling, and char. It is also a land of rock and of ice that lies glistening beneath flickering northern lights, a place where grizzlies wander among isolated mountain ranges, where polar bears roam among herds of caribou on the tundra flats. This is Canada's Far North, the setting of Arctic Aurora.

Author John Holt has made nine trips to this wild place, covering some fifty thousand miles in his exploration of its magic. Through his words – sometimes lyrical and introspective, sometimes insightfully humorous – you'll share in his adventures. At times, they involve the miners, trappers, bush pilots, and even the odd tourist he encountered. At others, his focus is the cold-water game fish that he casts to and hooked in every corner of the Yukon and Northwest Territories. Complementing the text are stunning black-and-white photographs, and a special sixteen-page section of breathtaking color images.
