Our Summer with the Eskimos

In the fall of 1944, Constance and Harmon "Bud" Helmericks built a cabin and overwintered in Alaska's remote Brooks Range. With spring melt, they resumed their odyssey north, intent on crossing the Continental Divide to explore the arctic barrens beyond. In Our Summer with the Eskimos, Connie's third bestselling book, she continues the true story of their 26-month trek through beautiful and unforgiving wilderness across the top of Alaska.

About the author

Connie Helmericks, arctic adventurer and author, was a wild spirit who yearned for adventure in an era of obedient women. In 1941, when she was twenty-three, she persuaded her husband to leave Arizona for the Alaskan wilds. Her successful books and their documentaries came later. She passed away in 1987.
