By the time Blair Braverman was eighteen, she had left her home in California, moved to arctic Norway to learn to drive sled dogs, and found work as a tour guide on a glacier in Alaska. Determined to carve out a life as a “tough girl”—a young woman who confronts danger without apology—she slowly developed the strength and resilience that the North demanded of her. Weaving together fast-paced adventure writing, ethnographic journalism, and elegantly wrought reflections on identity, Welcome to the Goddamn Ice Cube captures the triumphs and the perils of Braverman’s journey to self-discovery and independence in a landscape as beautiful as it is unforgiving.
Blair Braverman is a writer, dogsledder, and adventurer. She is the bestselling author of Welcome to the Goddamn Ice Cube, Dogs on the Trail, and Small Game, a contributing editor to Outside magazine, and a contributor to the New York Times, Vogue, This American Life, and elsewhere. She lives in the Northwoods with her husband, Quince Mountain, their kids, and their team of amazing sled dogs.
