Description

The stark, vast beauty of the remote Arctic Europe landscape has been the focus of human exploration for thousands of years.

In this striking blend of travel writing, history and mythology, Gavin Francis offers a unique portrait of the northern fringes of Europe.

His journey begins in the Shetland Isles, takes him to the Faroes, Iceland, Greenland, Svalbard and on to Lapland.

Following in the footsteps of the region's early pioneers, Francis observes how the region has adapted to the 21st century, giving an observed insight into the lives of people he encounters along the way.

As with all the best travel writing, "True North" is an engaging, compassionate tale of self-discovery, whilst blending historical and contemporary narratives in the tradition of Bruce Chatwin and Robert Macfarlane.
