From the author of "The Ice Master comes the remarkable true story of a young Inuit woman who survived six months alone on a desolate uninhabited Arctic island. In September, 1921, four young men and Ada Blackjack, a diminutive 25-year old Eskimo woman, ventured deep into the Artic in a secret attempt to colonize desolate Wrangel Island for Great Britain. Two years later, Ada Blackjack emerged as the sole survivor and Jennifer Niven has created an absorbing, compelling history of this remarkable woman.
