In suburban Arizona, 1965, Connie Helericks announces to her two daughters, 12-year-old Ann and 14-year-old Jean, that "we're going to make a canoe expedition to the Artic Ocean". And for two successive summers that's exactly what they did. This book is the vividly written story of their adventures in the remote northern reaches of Canada and the Arctic, in a twenty-foot canoe, amidst a wondrous and vast landscape. A wilderness adventure, and a story of family bonds and spiritual renewal.
