Join us for Book ClubHosted by Fireside on the second Wednesday of the month.
We are an exploratory book club and aim to read many different genres. If you are looking to get out of your comfort zone, stop on by and join in our discussion!
Our Book Club Pick for the month is Where the Sea Breaks Its Back by Corey Ford for the genre 'non-fiction survival'.
About the Book:
Author Corey Ford writes the classic and moving story of naturalist Georg Wilhelm Steller, who served on the 1741-42 Russian Alaska expedition with explorer Vitus Bering.
Steller was one of Europe's foremost naturalists and the first to document the unique wildlife of the Alaskan coast. In the course of the voyage, Steller made his valuable discoveries and suffered, along with Bering and the crew of the ill-fated ship St. Peter, some of the most grueling experiences in the history of Arctic exploration. First published in 1966, Where the Sea Breaks Its Back was hailed as "among this country's greatest outdoor writing" by Field & Stream magazine, and today continues to enchant and enlighten the new generations of readers about this amazing and yet tragic expedition, and Georg Steller's significant discoveries as an early naturalist.
