In \u003cb\u003eThis Cold Heaven\u003c\/b\u003e she combines the story of her travels with history and cultural anthropology to reveal a Greenland that few of us could otherwise imagine. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEhrlich unlocks the secrets of this severe land and those who live there; a hardy people who still travel by dogsled and kayak and prefer the mystical four months a year of endless darkness to the gentler summers without night. She discovers the twenty-three words the Inuit have for ice, befriends a polar bear hunter, and comes to agree with the great Danish-Inuit explorer Knud Rasmussen that \"all true wisdom is only to be found far from the dwellings of man, in great solitudes.\" \u003cb\u003eThis Cold Heaven\u003c\/b\u003e is at once a thrilling adventure story and a meditation on the clarity of life at the extreme edge of the world.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0679758526\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780679758525\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Ehrlich, Gretel, N\/A, N\/A\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group","offers":[{"title":"Paperback (Jan 2003)","offer_id":45656920359109,"sku":"9780679758525","price":20.9,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780679758525.jpg?v=1768885610","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/this-cold-heaven-seven-seasons-in-greenland","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
