<p>Mowat writes passionately of the bonds between a traditional people and the harsh world they inhabit, compiling a collection of stories that gives voice to a vanishing existence lived in the vast Arctic wilderness. The mythic Snow Walker traverses a place foreign to modern man -- a landscape where survival is simultaneously brutal and beautiful; a way of life embodied by fate, superstition and tribal connection; and a world where the ancestors wield an inexplicable magic.</p><p>A story from this collection titled &quot;Walk Well, My Brother&quot; was adapted in 2003 for the acclaimed Canadian film titled <i>The Snow Walker</i>. First published in 1975, Douglas &amp; McIntyre is pleased to add <i>The Snow Walker</i> to the Farley Mowat Library series, which includes the other recently re-released titles <i>Sea of Slaughter</i>, <i>People of the Deer</i>, <i>A Whale For the Killing</i>, <i>And No Birds Sang</i> and <i>Born Naked</i>.</p>
