Produktbeschreibung
Restless with wanderlust and anxious for adventure, a big-city Frankfurt woman's life is forever changed when she encounters a completely different world-one of teeming nature, landscaped vistas, communion with animals, and the free human spirit-in the wild backcountry of the Yukon. There she meets local icon Mabel Brewster, owner of the nearby equine stable, who is notorious for her extensive knowledge of the land, her stubborn grit and self-sufficiency, and her uncanny rapport with horses. A series of breathtaking journeys, perilous adventures, and illuminating life lessons transform these unlikely friends into spiritually bonded soul sisters, whose love withstands the test of twenty-two adventurous years and will forever reverberate in the untamed heart of the majestic North. Elisabeth Weigand lovingly pens a heart-wrenching tribute to the life of Mabel Brewster (1935-2015), whom she met upon her immigration to Canada's Yukon Territory in 1993. Through a stunning retelling of her life in the remote north that is at once spellbinding, light-hearted, beautiful, and heartbreaking, the reader is transported to the last untamed frontier- where raw nature reigns supreme and true friendship never dies.
Autorenporträt
Born and raised in Frankfurt, Germany, Elisabeth Weigand's passionate spirit for the outdoors drew her to the wild and vastly untouched wilderness in Canada's True North, the Yukon. She left her academic life and MA in Linguistics behind and immigrated in 1993 to live a life more simply, closer to nature, surrounded by all its glorious flora and fauna. Weigand delights in sharing her love for the wilds with anyone open to nature's miracles. Either with memoirs and travel blogs in her YukonWild Series. Or on excursions of her company Black Bear Wilderness Adventures, where she offers interpretive wilderness trips, remote cabin rentals and Yukon-wide transportation. Weigand lives close to the Yukon River, on a spacious, rural property with her horse Amigo and her dog Sarafina. Learn more about her and the YukonWild Series at www.elisabethweigand.com
