Welcome to Green Frigate

Titles published under the Green Frigate Books imprint aim to explore the horizons of the natural and built environments, and the relations of humans within them. The goal of the imprint is to reach its readership by producing works that fall in the cracks between those offered by traditional academic and popular presses. Specific categories include ‘Design, Interiors and Architecture’ and ‘The natural and built environments’. In common with Libri Books, the imprint should be of interest particularly for members of ‘communities of practice’ in the natural and built environments.

High Arctic Extreme Science

The 1990 Trans-Ellesmere Island Ski Expedition was the first human-powered, non-Inuit, lengthwise crossing of one the of the largest islands in the High Arctic. From 1992 to 1998, expedition member and scientist, Dr. Robert L. France, published more than a dozen ground-breaking articles in international journals based on expedition research concerning chemical contamination, wildlife distribution and behavior, and garbage littering. These studies, in addition to other, previously unpublished research findings and many photographs from the expedition, are collected here under a single cover for the first time. This work recalls a time when polar expeditions were equal parts both adventure and academic discovery.
