Dance of the Deadmen

Více o knize

The tragic Hornby expedition of 1926 follows John Hornby, a self-proclaimed arctic outdoorsman whose survival skills are compromised by past experiences and injuries from World War I. Despite his expressed disillusionment with the north, he recruits his inexperienced cousin, Edgar Christian, and Harold Adlard for a perilous journey into the remote Thelon River area of Canada's Northwest Territories. The story explores themes of hubris, the harsh realities of wilderness survival, and the consequences of underestimating nature.
