About the Book

Adrift in the Ice-Fields captures the perilous and adventurous lives of a group of English gentlemen who, while hunting sea-fowl in the ice-bound Gulf of St. Lawrence, face the unrelenting dangers of the ice pack. The story centers around their experiences as they become stranded in the vast, frozen wilderness and must rely on their resourcefulness to survive. The narrative brings to life the challenges of acquiring shelter, food, fire, and medicine in the harsh environment, while also offering a glimpse into the social life and folk traditions of the region s diverse inhabitants. As the ice breaks up, the hunters' perilous journey through the shifting ice offers vivid descriptions of the seal hunt and life aboard a sealing steamer. The author incorporates various dialects and cultural traits from the settlers and indigenous groups of the area, showcasing the region's unique customs and social life. The novel highlights the importance of survival in an unforgiving environment, blending adventure with a rich portrayal of the local culture and history.

About the Author :
Charles Winslow Hall, born Caroline Hall on May 22, 1860, in Malden, Massachusetts, was an American artist renowned for his animal and portrait paintings. Hall's life is marked by a unique and complex identity, as he lived as a man for the last ten years of his life, despite being biologically female. This fact remained unknown to the public until his death from consumption (tuberculosis) in 1901 in Turin, Italy. Throughout his life, Hall was recognized for his artistic talent, particularly in capturing the intricate details of animals and human portraits, a skill that earned him recognition in artistic circles. His work, often praised for its precision and emotional depth, continues to be valued for its contribution to American art. His story, which intertwines artistic achievement with the complexities of gender identity, has drawn attention for its historical significance. Hall passed away on September 29, 1901, leaving behind a legacy that includes not only his artistic works but also a unique and poignant narrative about self-expression and identity in a different era.
