Reviews
"There are only a handful of indispensable dog books... Winterdance belongs among [those] classics...It is hard to find a page in this laconic book without an insight, hard to find a word that could be cut without loss... Winterdance is beautiful and is very funny and it's about and dogs and their souls."-- Washington Post "Win terdance will be around long after most outdoor adventure books have been forgotten. What could have been an ordinary journal becomes instead a revelation." - Minneapolis/St. Paul Star-Tribune "In the tradition of Jack London...[Paulsen's] prose is spare and physical; at its best, it has the fluid simplicity of Hemingway...What's most moving is his behavior at the end of the race; 'I didn't want to go in,' he says. Armchair travelers will understand." - Booklist "A breathtaking, heart-stopping, roller coaster ride that depicts the brutal reality of the Iditarod, the magnificent beauty of Alaska, and the unique, if not surreal, relationship that develops between man and dog." -- Nevada Weekly, Read for your own pleasure, recommend to the young adults you know, and excerpt to read aloud to younger students Winterdance The Fine Madness of Running the Iditarod Gary Paulson's spellbinding account of his preparation for and running of the Iditarod,., "There are only a handful of indispensable dog books...Winterdance belongs among [those] classics...It is hard to find a page in this laconic book without an insight, hard to find a word that could be cut without loss...Winterdance is beautiful and is very funny and it's about and dogs and their souls."--Washington Post "Winterdance will be around long after most outdoor adventure books have been forgotten.
