He began the journey in 1933 by joining a company that took a reindeer herd across North America into the Eastern Arctic to supply food for the Eskimos. Tiring of the slow pace of the herd, Mr. Irwin decided to go from Aklavik in the northernmost Yukon heading east, on his own, prospecting on the way. Most of his time, however, was spent foraging for food for himself and his starving dogs. He was discovered, near death, by Eskimos and rescued. 254 pages with numerous photographs.
