Woodsong
Overview & Summary
Part memoir and part meditation on nature, Gary Paulsen recounts his experiences living and working with sled dogs in the wilderness of the northern United States, including his preparation for and running of the grueling Iditarod race across Alaska. Paulsen writes candidly about both the beauty and the brutality of the natural world, using his own real experiences to explore themes of survival and respect for wilderness that also run through his fiction.
