Download or read book Invariable Snow for the Eskimo written by B. Johnny Way and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-10-15 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From his birth in August of 1956 until early 1960, author B. Johnny Way lived a pretty normal life, during which time he tried his best to understand the simplest of childhood complexities. And then, somewhere around his fourth birthday, he began to change. In Invariable Snow for the Eskimo, Way shares the account of his early life that included living for almost twenty-four months on Kodiak Island. Way narrates a variety of adventures and experiences including the joys of slicing and gliding around on a huge sheet of ice atop a frozen Alaskan lake, witnessing firsthand the larger-than-life, scary-looking sea creatures from the icy-cold waters of the Gulf of Alaska, and fishing for sockeye salmon in one of the many streams and rivers of Alaska with his homemade fishing pole, made from the wood of a kids toy kite. Invariable Snow for the Eskimo discusses how, Way, as a youngster, quickly learned that helping others was more advantageous and rewarding than first thought and that sharing your time, patience, and knowledge with friends as well as strangers is better than any other kind of reward.

Book excerpt: Snow has had an astonishing influence on the shape of the land and human history. Ruth Kirk writes perceptively of how animals and people survive in the snow; of glaciers, continental ice sheets, blizzards, and avalanches; and of the awesome hazards of Arctic and Antarctic exploration. She discusses both our battles against snow and our uses of it, showing its importance to agriculture, climate, and the future. Through scientific reports and interviews with experts in various fields--from Antarctic explorers to atmospheric physicists--Kirk surveys the scope of snow's influence.
