|  | Arctic Wild by Lois Crisler When it was first published, this awe-inspiring account of a young couple's eighteen-month sojourn in the remote mountains of North America became an instant classic. On assignment from Walt Disney, Herb and Lois Crisler were flown to the middle of the tundra and left to photograph caribou migration. Woefully unprepared for the rigorous Arctic winter, the Crislers were stunned by the vibrant, natural habitat that burst forth with the spring thaw. Chief among this new life were two wolf pups, Trigger and Lady, whom they raised to maturity. As the Crislers earned the trust of these young wolves, Lois's records of miraculous and minute daily occurrences grew into a vast portrait of the nature of wolves and life in the remote wild. Crisler's keen observations and deep sympathies with the earth and its creatures has earned Arctic Wild its place in the canon of wilderness literature.
