Synopsis

“Stickeen…pushed his head past my shoulders, looked down and across, then looked me in the face and began to mutter and whine; saying as plainly as if speaking with words, “Surely, you are not going into that awful place.” As the darkness of a freezing night approaches, an experienced American naturalist and a dog are trapped on an Alaskan Glacier. This is a true story, written by one of the United States’ most famous naturalists and explorers. Public Domain (P)2015 Andre Stojka et. al.
