Leaving behind Sophie, his newly pregnant wife, Forrester records his extraordinary experiences in hopes that his journal will reach her if he doesn't return. As they map the territory and gather information on native tribes, whose understanding of the natural world is unlike anything they have ever encountered, Forrester and his team can't escape the sense that some great, mysterious force threatens their lives. Meanwhile, in Vancouver, Sophie chafes under the social restrictions of a pregnant woman on her own, and yearns to travel alongside her husband. She, too, explores nature, through the new art of photography, unaware that the coming winter will test her own courage and faith to the breaking point.-- $c Adapted from book jacket. 650 0 $a Scientific expeditions $z Alaska $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Explorers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Frontier and pioneer life $z Alaska $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Indians of North America $z Alaska $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Pregnant women $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Photography $v Fiction. 651 0 $a Alaska $x History $y 1867-1959 $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Photography $v Fiction. 650 6 $a ExpeÌditions scientifiques $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $z Alaska $0 (CaQQLa)201-0460551 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Explorateurs $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Indiens d'AmeÌrique $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $z Alaska $0 (CaQQLa)201-0012096 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Femmes enceintes $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 6 $a Photographie $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 651 6 $a Alaska $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 $x Histoire $0 (CaQQLa)201-0008194 $y 1867-1959 $0 (CaQQLa)201-0008194 $v Romans, nouvelles, etc. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0377299 650 7 $a Explorers. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00918556 650 7 $a Frontier and pioneer life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00935370 650 7 $a Indians of North America. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00969633 650 7 $a Photography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061714 650 7 $a Pregnant women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01075191 650 7 $a Scientific expeditions. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01108847 651 7 $a Alaska. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204480 648 7 $a 1867-1959 $2 fast 655 4 $a Historical fiction. 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01921574 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01726640 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Action and adventure fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Historical fiction. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 $n 1 952 $l DRPC413 $d 20221024083439.0 $n 12 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=101CE01A539B11EDBD908E82193FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
