Description
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
"An act of witness to a disappearing world, and an
implicit call to action to save what we can, this book is a great gift to us
all!"—Bill McKibben, author Oil and Honey: The Making of an
Unlikely Activist
“The Melting World is both a hymn of praise and a requiem for the passing beauty of alpine snowfields. In the tradition of John McPhee and Norman Maclean, Christopher White chronicles the men and women racing against climate change to understand the mysteries of the frozen world, even as it inexorably disappears from view. Rich in vivid detail and lovely prose, White's gorgeous and heartbreaking book will appeal to adventurers and scientists and anyone else who cares for our beloved planet.”—McKay Jenkins, author of The White Death: Tragedy and Heroism in an Avalanche Zone
