5.0 out of 5 stars Fast-paced, totally engrossing, 18 May 1999
By A Customer
This vivid look at life on the edge--about an inventive outlaw in remotest Labrador, a place in fact known as the edge of all things--reads like an excellent novel, with its assured, complex characterization and adventurous storyline. But this book is based on a true account of a couple's perilous chase by snowmobile across the subarctic Canadian barrens in pursuit of thugs who have just made an attempt on their lives. The man, a half Montagnais half Naskapi, has turned to smuggling as a way to make a living in the midst of North American society that has skewed values and despoiled his land; now at great risk, he must protect his interests. Rick Hornung tells his deeply distressing story with exhilarating skill.

5.0 out of 5 stars An unusual and thrilling adventure story, 14 May 1999
By A Customer
In sparse and elegant prose, Hornung takes his reader through the harsh and jagged twists of an unforgiving land. By telling the story of a man who casts himself out of his homeland and into an underworld of smugglers, this book provides a unique perspective on life in the remote areas of North America. When following Martin Rouleau's journey, the reader will travel into the cracks that are etched into the rocks of Canada -- the rifts between whites and aboriginals, the fissures amongst different aboriginal communities, the tensions between French and English speaking Canadians. This is a fascinating book; and, it's a must read for anyone interested in the survival of aboriginals living in the northern climate.
