Synopsis
In 1999 Jonathan Waterman undertook an ambitious expedition along the 2,200 miles of the Northwest Passage in Canada and Alaska, a journey that few have ever made. His story is a voyage of discovery by kayak and ski, as he struggles against freezing conditions, wolves, bears, his solitude and the tricks these all played on his mind amidst the harsh beauty of these northern landscapes.Waterman's Odyssey is more than an adventure story. It is also a journey to comprehend the remote and beguiling culture of the Inuit. Through his intimate experiences of months spent with the Inuit, Waterman addresses how a little understood culture is trying to retain its natural heritage while simultaneously joining the modern world.Against a landscape of sensational beauty, Waterman skilfully combines the telling of his extraordinary adventure with an exploration of a misunderstood people.
