"Crocodiles and Ice is a scientist/adventurer's journey into a Consciousness Revolution based on a deep, reciprocal communication with the Earth. The book highlights Jon Turk's award-winning polar expedition circumnavigating Ellesmere Island, as well as other, lesser known passages. But, more critically, Turk tells the story of his lifelong journey from suburban Connecticut into a passion for Deep Wild, an ancient passage, repeated--in one form or another--countless times, and ignored just as often"--Back cover.
