the new focus of my studies.... wrangel island... the last known home of the wooly mammoth !
although i will be examining the failed colonization of the island by the ill-fated 1921 Stefansson expedition, in which everyone but the Inuit seamstress, Ada Blackjack, and the expedition cat, Vic, died. Bringing together Stefansson's views on the Arctic + the morbid human fascination with disastrous expeditions. yay!
