Sinossi

In "In Northern Mists (Vol. 1&2)," Fridtjof Nansen artfully weaves together rich narratives from his explorations and the folklore of the Arctic regions, presenting a fascinating blend of travelogue and insightful cultural study. Nansen employs a lyrical yet precise style, immersing readers in the hauntingly beautiful landscapes and harsh realities of northern territories. This two-volume work reflects not only on the physical journey through the icy realms but also on the indigenous cultures and their histories, effectively situating his explorations within the broader context of late 19th-century European expeditions and scientific inquiry into uncharted territories. Fridtjof Nansen was a pioneering Norwegian explorer, scientist, and humanitarian, driven by a profound curiosity for the unknown and a deep respect for the indigenous peoples he encountered. His extensive experience in polar exploration and his scholarly pursuits in zoology and anthropology provided him with a unique lens through which to explore and document the northern mists, both metaphorically and literally. Nansen's personal convictions and scientific background strongly influenced his narrative style and thematic choices in this monumental work. Nansen's "In Northern Mists" is a compelling read for those interested in exploration literature, anthropology, and Nordic history. His vivid descriptions and empathetic portrayal of Arctic life are not only informative but also evocative, inviting readers to contemplate the beauty and resilience of these northern landscapes and cultures. This work is essential for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the interplay between human experience and the natural world.

Jessica Gigot

From midwifing new lambs to harvesting basil, Jessica Gigot invites the reader into her life on a small farm and the uncommon road that led her there. Fascinated by farming and the burgeoning local food movement, she spent her twenties wandering the Pacific Northwest, interning at small farms and doing graduate work in horticulture, always with an eye towards learning as much as she could about how and why people farm. Despite numerous setbacks and the many challenges of farming, she created a family and farm life defined by resilience and a genuine love of the land.   
In A Little Bit of Land, Gigot explores the intricacies of small-scale agriculture in the Pacific Northwest and the changing role of women in this male-dominated industry. Gigot alternates between chapters describing joys, routines, and challenges of farm life and chapters reflecting on her formative experiences in agriculture, on farms and in classrooms from Ashland to the Skagit Valley. Throughout, she explores questions of sustainability, economics, health, and food systems.
