Stories Of Ice: Adventure, Commerce and Creativity on Canada's Glaciers
Lynn Martel
Non fiction
Canada has more glacier ice than anywhere except Greenland and Antarctica. And like glaciers and icefields around the world, they are melting.
With the state of global ice constantly in the news, Lynn Martel examines Canadian glaciers to uncover their secrets and their future.
From a mother/daughter duo who spent five months skiing across icefields from Vancouver to Alaska, to scientists discovering biofilms deep inside glacier caverns, to protesters camping for weeks to protect their beloved local glacier, western Canada’s glaciers are dynamic, enigmatic, exquisitely beautiful, sometimes dangerous environments where people play, work, run businesses, explore, and create art every single day.
Lynn Martel is one of them. With gorgeous images by some of the country’s best outdoor photographers, Stories of Ice shares the excitement, the mystery, and the wonder of Canada’s glaciers and poses questions about their future.”
I am available for speaking engagements, I have many dozens of spectacular images to share along with entertaining, gripping and enlightening stories that will bring glaciers alive for you.
