Siku: Life on the Ice

Arctic is the northernmost region of the Earth, and consists of the Arctic Ocean, adjacent seas, and parts of countries: Canada, Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, Russia, Sweden and the United States. 

Siku: Life on the Ice brings us breathtaking full-page photographs of Arctic Sea ice like the one we can see on the cover. In foreword, Sheila Watt-Cloutier writes about the importance of the Arctic ice and glaciers to the rest of the planet. All the photographs in the book are taken by a professional photographer, Paul Souders. Short anecdotes from community members across the North accompany the stunning photographs.

Siku: Life on the Ice is a very nice coffee-table book suitable for all who like photography, nature, Arctic and are aware of the importance of Earth preservation.
