"Pam spurned conventional rewards, entrusted her dream to eight
powerful huskies, and set out alone to cross the Arctic. . . . a most
extraordinary journey." --Sir Ranulph Fiennes, renowned adventurer
Eight sled dogs and one woman set out from Barrow, Alaska, to mush 2,500
miles. Alone Across the Artic chronicles this astounding expedition.
For an entire year, Pam Flowers and her dogs made this epic journey
across North America arctic coast. The first woman to make this trip
solo, Pam endures and deals with intense blizzards, melting pack ice,
and a polar bear. Yet in the midst of such danger, Pam also relishes the
time alone with her beloved team. Their survival---her survival---hinges
on that mutual trust and love.
