A repeat winter ride across some of the world’s most isolated and unforgiving land, through temperatures cold enough to freeze a flask of whisky into a popsicle. Follow along as the author slips, slides and skids his way across the frozen roads of the Great White North, explaining as only he can, why this journey had never been done, and why it will most likely never be done again. Don't expect artful prose or deep literature. It's not especially beautifully written. Rather it is a simple day-after-frigid-day account of an extraordinarily challenging ride. Infused with a humor that will warm you up, a take on life that will astound you and a ride that will leave you frozen in the saddle, longing for more. By Paul Mondor. Softbound, 5.5”×8.5”, 299 pp., b/w illus
