Arctic Icons: How the Town of Churchill Learned to Love its Polar Bears Paperback – August 31, 2014

What a great find! This used book was like new. This is a quality book seller.

Beautifully illustrated account of how the people of Churchill are learning to live with the polar bears who pass through town on the way from their snow cave dens to the ice of Hudson Bay. Worth it for the photos alone. The writing is objective and thorough, and provides a brilliant view of modern life in the Arctic.

Great book about how polar bears became icons in Churchill, which we visited in 2017 to see polar bears. Nitpick: the names of different characters in book were a bit difficult to follow.

This book was written by someone who actually lived in Churchill. I recently made a trip there, where I was first introduced to it. I decided to order it when I returned rather than carry it with me. Very factual. Enjoyed it!

Great gift
