About This Book

A boy and his faithful dog discover a drifting ship's boat with a dead man aboard, and that finding propels them into a succession of Arctic ordeals. They endure treacherous ice floes, storms, shipwreck and being set adrift, a winter of famine on a barren island, confrontations with wolves, and arduous journeys over ice and sea while relying on companions, sacrifice, and scarce resources. The narrative follows their struggle for survival, moments of daring rescue, and the gradual unraveling of the mystery surrounding the abandoned boat and its occupant.
